  riscv: Fix RISCV_ALTERNATIVE_EARLY (2024-09-03 07:57:55 -0700)

----------------------------------------------------------------
RISC-V Fixes for 6.11-rc7

* A revert for the mmap() change that ties the allocation range to the
  hint adress, as what we tried to do ended up regressing on other
  userspace workloads.
* A fix to avoid a kernel memory leak when emulating misaligned accesses
  from userspace.
* A Kconfig fix for toolchain vector detection, which now correctly
  detects vector support on toolchains where the V extension depends on
  the M extension.
* A fix to avoid failing the linear mapping bootmem bounds check on
  NOMMU systems.
* A fix for early alternatives on relocatable kernels.

----------------------------------------------------------------
That mmap() one is particuarly embarassing, as it didn't even fix the sv39
compatibility issue we set out to fix in the first place.  We'll have a better
fix for this, but I figured it would be best to get the revert out as it'll
need to be backported and it breaks real workloads.
