Is anyone using LLD for MIPS these days who can test this in a wider context? I've tried to be very careful but I would not be surprised if I've made mistakes; our test coverage isn't great.

I believe only one company is still actively contributing to the MIPS backend in LLVM... @wzssyqa 

Besides the ClangBuiltLinux maintainer continues to support MIPS.
