[PATCH v2 5/7] RISC-V: implement cache-management errata for T-Head SoCs

Since riscv_vendor_id() can be used from pbl and non-pbl context as well
as from relocated and non-relocated code, we are able to query the
vendor id and add special vendor handlings. This is required since the
T-Head C906 and C910 implement a scheme for handling cache operations
different from the generic Zicbom extension.

While on it replace the 'asm' statement by '__asm__' so we are not
relying on GNU extension.

Hi,

please note that I'm aware of the fact that not all RISC-V cores
implementing the vendorid register, which is quirky according the
"privileged architecture" documentation. For such cores I would propose
to extend the pbl-flags by adding a quirks field. Platforms not
supporting the vendorid register can set the quirk within th
lowlevel/pbl code e.g.:

  barebox_riscv_supervisor_entry(DRAM_BASE, SZ_1G, hartid, fdt, RISCV_QUIRK_NO_VENDORID);

This can be parsed by riscv_vendor_id() so in such case the vendorid 0
which is:

3.1.2 Machine Vendor ID Register mvendorid

The mvendorid CSR is a 32-bit read-only register providing the JEDEC
manufacturer ID of the provider of the core. This register must be
readable in any implementation, but a value of 0 can be returned to
indicate the field is not implemented or that this is a non-commercial
implementation.

Regards,
  Marco
