Discussing this with Andrew and Palmer, it looks like "su" is currently 
non-compliant.  Section 22.6 of the user-level specification states that 
the "s" character indicates that a longer standard supervisor extension

OK great.  Do you want to resend an updated patch, or would you like me to 
fix it up here?

I'll also send a patch to drop CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_C.
