good question, in January 2015 I could build Kodi for mips:
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/5570#issuecomment-72334761

In June 2015 they added some atomic code:
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/593f4aa0ba7e572394111a856ec9b54ed7a8351
b#diff-7e982ad80e27d748c5f7d697506c692f which breaks compilation today
with Kodi 16.0-Jarvis: 

LD      kodi.bin

`std::__atomic_base<long long>::store(long long, std::memory_order)':

using this defconfig with the BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SYNC_8 patch reverted: 

BR2_mipsel=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_GLIBC=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_CXX=y
BR2_PACKAGE_KODI=y
BR2_PACKAGE_MESA3D=y
BR2_PACKAGE_MESA3D_DRI_DRIVER_SWRAST=y
BR2_PACKAGE_XORG7=y
