[PATCH v2 0/3] riscv: cpufeature: Add Supm extension id and validation

[Guodong Xu]

Supm as an extension indicates pointer-masking support for user mode
(U-mode). It relies on Ssnpm or Smnpm for the underlying hardware
implementation.

Major change in v2 is added dependency check for Supm in bindings.

As a ratified feature, define a dedicated RISCV_ISA_EXT_ id for Supm.
However, since Supm is targeting U-mode, it should not be added into
devicetrees that describe hardware running privileged system softwares.

Supm is implied by Ssnpm (S-mode) or Smnpm (M-mode). Add parsing logic
and validation to ensure this dependency.

When CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_SUPM is disabled, Supm validation will fail
regardless of whether Ssnpm or Smnpm exist. This patchset doesn't change
this behavior.

Prior discussions about how Supm should be handled can be found in Links
[1] and [2].

- Patch 2: Updated the SUPM id number due to rebase conflict.
           Added Reviewed-by from Conor.
- Patch 3: Updated the Fixes tag.
           Added Acked-by from Conor.
