[PATCH v1 4/7] RISC-V: validate riscv,isa at boot, not during ISA string parsing

From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley at microchip.com>

Since riscv_fill_hwcap() now only iterates over possible cpus, the
basic validation of whether riscv,isa contains "rv<width>" can be moved
to riscv_early_of_processor_hartid().

Further, "ima" support is required by the kernel, so reject any CPU not
fitting the bill.
