Subject: [PATCH v5 0/5] riscv: Introduce KASLR

The following KASLR implementation allows to randomize the kernel mapping:

- virtually: we expect the bootloader to provide a seed in the device-tree
- physically: only implemented in the EFI stub, it relies on the firmware to
provide a seed using EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL. arm64 has a similar implementation
hence the patch 3 factorizes KASLR related functions for riscv to take
advantage.

The new virtual kernel location is limited by the early page table that only
has one PUD and with the PMD alignment constraint, the kernel can only take
< 512 positions.

base-commit-tag: v6.5-rc1

Changes in v5:
* Renamed efi-stub-kaslr.c into kaslr.c and fix commit log of patch 3,
as suggested by Ard
* Removed stubs since the kaslr functions were moved to their own file
(and then does not trigger any build failure for architectures that do
not call those functions since they are in their own compilation unit)

Changes in v4:
* Fix efi_get_kimg macro that returned nothing
* Moved new kaslr functions into their own files to avoid zboot link
failures, as suggested by Ard

Changes in v3:
* Rebase on top of 6.4-rc2
* Make RANDOMIZE_BASE depend on 64bit
* Fix efi_icache_sync and efi_get_kimg_min_align which were undefined
in x86 (and certainly other archs)
* Add patch 4 to fix warning on rv32

Changes in v2:
* Rebase on top of 6.3-rc1
* Add a riscv cache sync after memcpying the kernel
* Add kaslr_offset implementation for KCOV
* Add forward declaration to quiet LLVM

Subject: [PATCH v5 1/5] riscv: Introduce virtual kernel mapping KASLR

KASLR implementation relies on a relocatable kernel so that we can move
the kernel mapping.

The seed needed to virtually move the kernel is taken from the device tree,
so we rely on the bootloader to provide a correct seed. Zkr could be used
unconditionnally instead if implemented, but that's for another patch.

Subject: [PATCH v5 5/5] riscv: libstub: Implement KASLR by using generic functions

We can now use arm64 functions to handle the move of the kernel physical
mapping: if KASLR is enabled, we will try to get a random seed from the
firmware, if not possible, the kernel will be moved to a location that
suits its alignment constraints.

For all I care, you can just squash this into the previous patch as well.
