Pull RISC-V fixes from Paul Walmsley:
"The notable changes here are the three RISC-V timer compare register
update sequence patches. These only apply to RV32 systems and are
related to the 64-bit timer compare value being split across two
separate 32-bit registers.
We weren't using the appropriate three-write sequence, documented in
the RISC-V ISA specifications, to avoid spurious timer interrupts
during the update sequence; so, these patches now use the recommended
sequence.
This doesn't affect 64-bit RISC-V systems, since the timer compare
value fits inside a single register and can be updated with a single
write.
- Fix the RISC-V timer compare register update sequence on RV32
systems to use the recommended sequence in the RISC-V ISA manual
This avoids spurious interrupts during updates
- Add a dependence on the new CONFIG_CACHEMAINT_FOR_DMA Kconfig
symbol for Renesas and StarFive RISC-V SoCs
- Add a temporary workaround for a Clang compiler bug caused by using
asm_goto_output for get_user()
- Clarify our documentation to specifically state a particular ISA
specification version for a chapter number reference"
