[PATCH] riscv: Adjust dependencies of HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE selection

When building allmodconfig with clang and its integrated assembler and
linking with a version of GNU ld prior to 2.36, the following link error
occurs:

  riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: .init.data has both ordered [`__patchable_function_entries' in init/main.o] and unordered [`.init_array.0' in kernel/trace/trace_benchmark.o] sections
  riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: final link failed: bad value

This is the same error addressed by commit 45bd8951806e ("arm64: Improve
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS selection for clang") for arm64. See that
changelog for a full description of why this error occurs with this
combination of tools.

In a similar manner as that change, restrict the
CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE selection to combinations of tools known to
work so that there are no errors.
