Whole calculations can be inside relocateOne(). 
Yes, forgot about body, its also needed. So it could probably look something like that:

template <class ELFT>
void MipsTargetInfo<ELFT>::relocateOne(uint8_t *Loc, uint8_t *BufEnd,
                                       uint32_t Type, uint64_t P, uint64_t SA,
                                       uint64_t ZA, uint8_t *PairedLoc,
                                       uint64_t A, const SymbolBody *S) const {
  const endianness E = ELFT::TargetEndianness;
  switch (Type) {
....
  case R_MIPS_HI16: {
    if (S == Config->MipsGpDisp)
      SA = getMipsGpAddr<ELFT>() - P + A;
    uint32_t Instr = read32<E>(Loc);
    if (PairedLoc) {
      uint64_t AHL = ((Instr & 0xffff) << 16) +
                     SignExtend64<16>(read32<E>(PairedLoc) & 0xffff);
      write32<E>(Loc, (Instr & 0xffff0000) | mipsHigh(SA + AHL));
    } else {
      warning("Can't find matching R_MIPS_LO16 relocation for R_MIPS_HI16");
      write32<E>(Loc, (Instr & 0xffff0000) | mipsHigh(SA));
    }
    break;
  }
......
  case R_MIPS_LO16: {
    if (S == Config->MipsGpDisp)
      SA = getMipsGpAddr<ELFT>() - P + A + 4;
    uint32_t Instr = read32<E>(Loc);
    int64_t AHL = SignExtend64<16>(Instr & 0xffff);
    write32<E>(Loc, (Instr & 0xffff0000) | ((SA + AHL) & 0xffff));
    break;
  }
