RISC-V: Add Sstc extension support
This series implements Sstc extension support which was ratified
recently. Before the Sstc extension, an SBI call is necessary to
generate timer interrupts as only M-mode have access to the timecompare
registers. Thus, there is significant latency to generate timer
interrupts at kernel. For virtualized enviornments, its even worse as
the KVM handles the SBI call and uses a software timer to emulate the
timecomapre register.
Sstc extension solves both these problems by defining a
stimecmp/vstimecmp at supervisor (host/guest) level. It allows kernel to
program a timer and recieve interrupt without supervisor execution
enviornment (M-mode/HS mode) intervention.
