This series (or equivalent) is a prerequisite for both user-mode pointer
masking and CFI support, as both of those are per-thread features and
are controlled by fields in the envcfg CSR. These patches are based on
v1 of the pointer masking series[1], with significant input from both
Deepak and Andrew.
