I tested this patch after dropping the CONFIG_ISA_RISCV_C test (see 
below).  Running "cat /proc/cpuinfo" generated the following kernel 
warnings:
          
[   73.412626] unsupported ISA extensions "su" in device tree for cpu [0]
[   73.418417] unsupported ISA extensions "su" in device tree for cpu [1]
[   73.424912] unsupported ISA extensions "su" in device tree for cpu [2]
[   73.431425] unsupported ISA extensions "su" in device tree for cpu [3]

Seems like the "su" should be dropped from mandatory_ext.  What do you 
think?

There's no Kconfig option by this name, and we're requiring compressed 
instruction support as part of the RISC-V Linux baseline.  Could you share 
the rationale behind this?  Looks to me like this should be dropped.
