[U-Boot] [PATCH v6 0/3] RISC-V S-mode support

This patchset allows us runing u-boot in S-mode which is
useful on platforms where M-mode runtime firmware is an
independent firmware and u-boot is used as last stage OS
bootloader.

The patchset based upon git://git.denx.de/u-boot-riscv.git
and is tested on QEMU in both M-mode and S-mode.

For S-mode testing, we have used u-boot.bin as payload of
latest BBL (at commit 6ebd0f2a46255d0c76dad3c05b16c1d154795d26)
applied with following changes:

Changes since v5:
 - Dropped PATCH4 to remove redundant a2 store on DRAM base in start.S
   because it will taken care by Rick as separate patch
 - Added MODE_PREFIX() macro to generate mode specific CSR names

Changes since v4:
 - Rebased series based on commit 52923c6db7f00e0197ec894c8c1bb8a7681974bb
   of git://git.denx.de/u-boot-riscv.git
 - Added a patch to remove redundant a2 store on DRAM base. This
   store was creating problem booting U-Boot in S-mode using BBL.

Changes since v3:
 - Replaced 'u-boot' with 'U-Boot' in commit message
 - Dropped 'an' in RISCV_SMODE kconfig option help message
 - Added appropriate #ifdef in arch/riscv/lib/interrupts.c

Changes since v2:
 - Dropped 'default n" from RISCV_SMODE kconfig option
 - Replaced '-smode_' in defconfig names with '_smode_'

Changes since v1:
 - Rebased upon latest git://git.denx.de/u-boot-riscv.git
 - Add details in cover letter for running u-boot in S-mode
   using BBL

Anup Patel (3):
  riscv: Add kconfig option to run U-Boot in S-mode
  riscv: qemu: Use different SYS_TEXT_BASE for S-mode
  riscv: Add S-mode defconfigs for QEMU virt machine
