This series of patches are for Crash-utility tool, it make crash tool support
RISCV64 arch and the common commands(*, bt, p, rd, mod, log, set, struct, task,
dis, help -r, help -m, and so on).

To make the crash tool work normally for RISCV64 arch, we need a Linux kernel
patch, which exports the kernel virtual memory layout, va_bits, phys_ram_base
to vmcoreinfo, it can simplify the development of crash tool.

The Linux kernel patch set:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20220811074150.3020189-1-xianting.tian@linux.alibaba.com/
[ Patch 1 ~ 4 already merged to Linux for-next branch, targeted for 5.20;
  Patch 5, 6 already merged to Palmer's riscv-crash branch:
  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/palmer/linux.git/log/?h=riscv-crash ]
 
This series of patches are tested on QEMU RISCV64 env and SoC platform of
T-head Xuantie 910 RISCV64 CPU.

-------
Changes V1 -> V2:
 1, Do the below fixes based on HAGIO KAZUHITO's comments: 
    Fix build warnings,
    Use MACRO for Linux version,
    Add description of x86_64 binary for riscv64 in README,
    Fix build error for the "sticky" target for build on x86_64,
    Fix the mixed indent.
 2, Add 'help -m/M' support patch to this patch set.
 3, Support native compiling approach, which means the host OS distro
    is also a riscv64 (lp64d) Linux, based on Yixun Lan's comments.
 4, Use __riscv and __riscv_xlen instead of __riscv64__ based on Yixun Lan's comments.
Changes V2 -> V3:
 1, Fix coding style, avoid including the header twice, move free() to right place,
    introduce VM_FLAGS and so on based on Li Jiang's comments.
 2, Adjust the implementation of riscv64_verify_symbol(refer to the logic of x86_64_verify_symbol)
    as KSYMS_START isn't set when verify symbol in some case.

  Add RISCV64 framework code support
  RISCV64: Make crash tool enter command line and support some commands
  RISCV64: Add 'dis' command support
  RISCV64: Add 'irq' command support
  RISCV64: Add 'bt' command support
  RISCV64: Add 'help -r' command support
