Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] riscv: Use Kconfig to set unaligned access speed

If the hardware unaligned access speed is known at compile time, it is
possible to avoid running the unaligned access speed probe to speedup
boot-time.

Changes in v4:
- Add additional Kconfig options for the other unaligned access speeds
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240202-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v3-0-c44f91f03bb6@rivosinc.com

Changes in v3:
- Revert change to csum (Eric)
- Change ifndefs for ifdefs (Eric)
- Change config in Makefile (Elliot/Eric)
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240201-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v2-0-77c368bed7b2@rivosinc.com

Changes in v2:
- Move around definitions to reduce ifdefs (Clément)
- Make RISCV_MISALIGNED depend on !HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
  (Clément)
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240131-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v1-0-98d155e9cda8@rivosinc.com
