[PATCH v2 0/3] Add riscv semihosting support in u-boot

Semihosting is a mechanism that enables code running on
a target to communicate and use the Input/Output
facilities on a host computer that is running a debugger.
This patchset adds support for semihosting in u-boot
for RISCV64 targets.

CHANGES since v1:
-   Moved the identical smh_* and semihosting_enabled/disable_semihosting
	code of ARM and RISC-V to lib/semihosting.c
-	Extend the handle_trap() functionality to call disable_semihosting()
	if the cause is a breakpoint (i.e. ebreak instruction)
-	Change our implementation of semihosting_enabled to be exactly the
	same as the way ARM implemented it
-	Additionally enable the CONFIG_SPL_FS_EXT4 and CONFIG_SPL_FS_FAT
	configs for qemu defconfigs so that CONFIG_SPL_FS_LOAD_PAYLOAD_NAME
	gets automatically enabled instead of us #defining it in
	include/configs/qemu-riscv.h
