This series implements Sstc extension support which was ratified
recently. Before the Sstc extension, an SBI call is necessary to
generate timer interrupts as only M-mode have access to the timecompare
registers. Thus, there is significant latency to generate timer
interrupts at kernel. For virtualized enviornments, its even worse as
the KVM handles the SBI call and uses a software timer to emulate the
timecomapre register.
Sstc extension solves both these problems by defining a
stimecmp/vstimecmp at supervisor (host/guest) level. It allows kernel to
program a timer and recieve interrupt without supervisor execution
enviornment (M-mode/HS mode) intervention.
* palmer/riscv-sstc:
RISC-V: Prefer sstc extension if available
RISC-V: Enable sstc extension parsing from DT
RISC-V: Add SSTC extension CSR details
The RISC-V hypervisor specification doesn't have any virtual timer
feature.
Due to this, the guest VCPU timer will be programmed via SBI calls.
The host will use a separate hrtimer event for each guest VCPU to
provide timer functionality. We inject a virtual timer interrupt to
the guest VCPU whenever the guest VCPU hrtimer event expires.
This patch adds guest VCPU timer implementation along with ONE_REG
interface to access VCPU timer state from user space.

Right now the RISC-V timer driver is convoluted to support:
1. Linux RISC-V S-mode (with MMU) where it will use TIME CSR for
clocksource and SBI timer calls for clockevent device.
2. Linux RISC-V M-mode (without MMU) where it will use CLINT MMIO
counter register for clocksource and CLINT MMIO compare register
for clockevent device.
We now have a separate CLINT timer driver which also provide CLINT
based IPI operations so let's remove CLINT MMIO related code from
arch/riscv directory and RISC-V timer driver.

Instead of directly calling RISC-V timer interrupt handler from
RISC-V local interrupt conntroller driver, this patch implements
RISC-V timer interrupt as a per-CPU interrupt using per-CPU APIs
of Linux IRQ subsystem.

When running in M-mode we can't use the SBI to set the timer, and
don't have access to the time CSR as that usually is emulated by
M-mode. Instead provide code that directly accesses the MMIO for
the timer.

Many of the privileged CSRs exist in a supervisor and machine version
that are used very similarly. Provide versions of the CSR names and
fields that map to either the S-mode or M-mode variant depending on
a new CONFIG_RISCV_M_MODE kconfig symbol.

If we just use the CSRs that these map to directly the code is simpler
and doesn't require extra inline assembly code. Also fix up the top-level
comment in timer-riscv.c to not talk about the cycle count or mention
details of the clocksource interface, of which this file is just a
consumer.

Currently, clocksource registration happens for an invalid cpu for
non-smp kernels. This lead to kernel panic as cpu hotplug registration
will fail for those cpus. Moreover, riscv_hartid_to_cpuid can return
errors now.
Do not proceed if hartid or cpuid is invalid. Take this opportunity to
print appropriate error strings for different failure cases.
