[PATCH v2 0/2] Register Zicntr in FDT when emulating is possible

[Yao Zi]

OpenSBI is capable of emulating time CSR on HARTs without a full Zicntr
extension. Previously, we hardcoded Zicntr extension in the devicetree
for these cores, like JH7110 in mainline Linux[1]. This doesn't reflect
the hardware and may confuse pre-SBI bootloaders, like U-Boot running in
M-Mode.

To solve the issue, let's register Zicntr in FDT dynamically for cores
supporting it by SBI emulation, allowing pre-SBI stages to detect Zicntr
availability reliably with riscv,isa-extensions.

Changed from v1
- Zicntr detection
  - Introduce a bitmap to sbi_hart_features instead of using pseudo-
    extensions to represent availability of CSRs
  - Change possibly misleading abbreviation "RO" to "read-only" in
    commit message
- FDT fixup
  - Don't register zicntr to (legacy) devicetrees where harts don't come
    with a riscv,isa-extensions property
