Subject: [PATCH v2 00/17] riscv: Support vendor extensions and xtheadvector

This patch series ended up much larger than expected, please bear with
me! The goal here is to support vendor extensions, starting at probing
the device tree and ending with reporting to userspace.

The main design objective was to allow vendors to operate independently
of each other. This has been achieved by delegating vendor extensions to
a new struct "hart_isa_vendor" which is a counterpart to "hart_isa".

Each vendor will have their own list of extensions they support. Each
vendor will have a "namespace" to themselves which is set at the key
values of 0x8000 - 0x8080. It is up to the vendor's disgression how they
wish to allocate keys in the range for their vendor extensions.

Reporting to userspace follows a similar story, leveraging the hwprobe
syscall. There is a new hwprobe key RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_VENDOR_EXT_0 that
is used to request supported vendor extensions. The vendor extension
keys are disambiguated by the vendor associated with the cpumask passed
into hwprobe. The entire 64-bit key space is available to each vendor.

On to the xtheadvector specific code. xtheadvector is a custom extension
that is based upon riscv vector version 0.7.1 [1]. All of the vector
routines have been modified to support this alternative vector version
based upon whether xtheadvector was determined to be supported at boot.
I have tested this with an Allwinner Nezha board. I ran into issues
booting the board on 6.9-rc1 so I applied these patches to 6.8. There
are a couple of minor merge conflicts that do arrise when doing that, so
please let me know if you have been able to boot this board with a 6.9
kernel. I used SkiffOS [2] to manage building the image, but upgraded
the U-Boot version to Samuel Holland's more up-to-date version [3] and
changed out the device tree used by U-Boot with the device trees that
are present in upstream linux and this series. Thank you Samuel for all
of the work you did to make this task possible.

To test the integration, I used the riscv vector kselftests. I modified
the test cases to be able to more easily extend them, and then added a
xtheadvector target that works by calling hwprobe and swapping out the
vector asm if needed.

Changes in v2:
- Added commit hash to xtheadvector
- Simplified riscv,isa vector removal fix to not mess with the DT
  riscv,vendorid
- Moved riscv,vendorid parsing into a different patch and cache the
  value to be used by alternative patching
- Reduce riscv,vendorid missing severity to "info"
- Separate vendor extension list to vendor files
- xtheadvector no longer puts v in the elf_hwcap
- Only patch vendor extension if all harts are associated with the same
  vendor. This is the best chance the kernel has for working properly if
  there are multiple vendors.
- Split hwprobe vendor keys out into vendor file
- Add attribution for Heiko's patches
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240411-dev-charlie-support_thead_vector_6_9-v1-0-4af9815ec746@rivosinc.com
