[PATCH v2 0/6] RISC-V: Enable cbo.zero in usermode

In order for usermode to issue cbo.zero, it needs privilege granted to
issue the extension instruction (patch 2) and to know that the extension
is available and its block size (patch 3). Patch 1 could be separate from
this series (it just fixes up some error messages), patches 4-5 convert
the hwprobe selftest to a statically-linked, TAP test and patch 6 adds a
new hwprobe test for the new information as well as testing CBO
instructions can or cannot be issued as appropriate.

Thanks,
drew

v2:
  - fixed build of the vector selftest
  - changed this-cpu wrappers to just cpu wrappers and then pass
    smp_processor_id() at the callsite
  - added comment to EXT_KEY macro
  - picked up a couple r-b's
