Subject: [PATCH 0/8] riscv: Support compiling the kernel with extensions

The kernel currently has the restriction that it can only be compiled
with the extensions that are hardcoded in arch/risc/Makefile.

Any extension that is not listed in the Makefile can still be used by
explicitly writing the assembly and using alternative patching.

This series introduces Kconfig options that allow the kernel to be
compiled with additional extensions.
