[PATCH 0/9] T-Head: Allow read access to th.mxstatus CSR

On T-Head C9xx harts, the th.mxstatus CSR provides valuable information
about the available vendor extensions. As this CSR is only accessible in
M-mode, we need to provide a mechanism for other modes to access this
information. This patchset solves this by extending the existing
platform abstraction such that platforms (or platform overrides)
can provide a CSR read/write handler.

A CSR read-handler for th.mxstatus is then added that is utilized by
the Allwinner D1, the T-Head TH1520, and the Sophgo SG2042.
Further, a generic mvendorid-based platform override is added that also
enables the CSR read-handler for th.mxstatus (needed for QEMU).

The CSR is documented here:
  https://github.com/T-head-Semi/thead-extension-spec/pull/45

For QEMU this patch depends on
