This series adds RISC-V Hibernation/suspend to disk support.
Low level Arch functions were created to support hibernation.
swsusp_arch_suspend() relies code from __cpu_suspend_enter() to write
cpu state onto the stack, then calling swsusp_save() to save the memory
image.

Arch specific hibernation header is implemented and is utilized by the
arch_hibernation_header_restore() and arch_hibernation_header_save()
functions. The arch specific hibernation header consists of satp, hartid,
and the cpu_resume address. The kernel built version is also need to be
saved into the hibernation image header to making sure only the same
kernel is restore when resume.

swsusp_arch_resume() creates a temporary page table that covering only
the linear map. It copies the restore code to a 'safe' page, then start to
restore the memory image. Once completed, it restores the original
kernel's page table. It then calls into __hibernate_cpu_resume()
to restore the CPU context. Finally, it follows the normal hibernation
path back to the hibernation core.

To enable hibernation/suspend to disk into RISCV, the below config
need to be enabled:
- CONFIG_ARCH_HIBERNATION_HEADER
- CONFIG_ARCH_HIBERNATION_POSSIBLE

At high-level, this series includes the following changes:
1) Change suspend_save_csrs() and suspend_restore_csrs()
   to public function as these functions are common to
   suspend/hibernation. (patch 1)
2) Refactor the common code in the __cpu_resume_enter() function and
   __hibernate_cpu_resume() function. The common code are used by
   hibernation and suspend. (patch 2)
3) Enhance kernel_page_present() function to support huge page. (patch 3)
4) Add arch/riscv low level functions to support
   hibernation/suspend to disk. (patch 4)

The above patches are based on kernel v6.3-rc1 and are tested on
StarFive VF2 SBC board and Qemu. 
ACPI platform mode is not supported in this series.

Changes since v4:
- Rebased to kernel v6.3-rc1
- Resolved typo(s)
- Removed unnecessary helper function
- Removed unnecessary "addr" local variable
- Removed typecast of 'int'
- Used def_bool HIBERNATION
- Used "mv a0, zero" instead of "add a0, zero, zero"
- Make linear region as executable and writable when restoring the
  image

Changes since v3:
- Rebased to kernel v6.2
- Temporary page table code refactoring by reference to ARM64
- Resolved typo(s) and grammars
- Resolved documentation errors
- Resolved clang build issue
- Removed unnecessary comments
- Used kzalloc instead of kcalloc

Changes since v2:
- Rebased to kernel v6.2-rc5
- Refactor the common code used by hibernation and suspend
- Create copy_page macro
- Solved other comments from Andrew and Conor

Changes since v1:
- Rebased to kernel v6.2-rc3
- Fixed bot's compilation error

Sia Jee Heng (4):
  RISC-V: Change suspend_save_csrs and suspend_restore_csrs to public
    function
  RISC-V: Factor out common code of __cpu_resume_enter()
  RISC-V: mm: Enable huge page support to kernel_page_present() function
  RISC-V: Add arch functions to support hibernation/suspend-to-disk
