[PATCH v1 0/6] RISC-V: hwprobe: Introduce which-cpus

This series introduces a flag for the hwprobe syscall which
effectively reverses its behavior from getting the values of
keys for a set of cpus to getting the cpus for a set of key-value
pairs. The series was originally posted as an RFC[1] and based on
another series. v1 is now only based on a single patch pointed out
with the tag below.

Based-on: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231010165101.14942-2-ajones@ventanamicro.com/

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230921125518.175428-7-ajones@ventanamicro.com/

Changes since the RFC:
 - Split hwprobe out of sys_riscv.c into its own file [Palmer]
 - Split the which-cpus functionality out of do_riscv_hwprobe() [Palmer]
 - Rename hwprobe_key_is_map to hwprobe_key_is_bitmask [Evan]
 - Move the homogeneous_cpus logic into the vDSO function [Evan]
 - Rework logic to not need to allocate any memory
 - Honor cpu affinity in the which-cpus selftests utility
 - Picked up some r-b's
