Subject: [PATCH v2 7/8] riscv: Add PLATFORM_SUPPORTS_RISCV_ISA_ZBC Kconfig
option
Zbc can optimize kernel instruction sequences. Add a config option
PLATFORM_SUPPORTS_RISCV_ISA_ZBC that allows arbitrary Zbc instruction
sequences to be emitted by the compiler.
The existing "RISCV_ISA_ZBC" option is repurposed to be used to by kernel
code to determine if either PLATFORM_MAY_SUPPORT_RISCV_ISA_ZBC or
PLATFORM_SUPPORTS_RISCV_ISA_ZBC has been set.
