[PATCH v4 2/2] riscv: accept the atomic extensions this kernel was built with

riscv_early_of_processor_hartid() rejects a hart unless its
riscv,isa-extensions property contains "a". That rejects a Zalrsc-only
hart even when the kernel was built to use only LR/SC.

Require "a" or "zaamo" when the kernel emits AMO, and "a" or "zalrsc"
when it emits LR/SC. A normal build defines both toolchain macros and
still requires the full A extension. The legacy "riscv,isa" fallback
keeps its rv{32,64}ima check.
