Add a README file for RISC-V specific kernel selftests under
tools/testing/selftests/riscv/. This mirrors the existing README
for arm64, providing clear guidance on how the tests are architecture
specific and skipped on non-riscv systems. It also includes
standard make commands for building, running and installing the
tests, along with a reference to general kselftest documentation.

The implement of cmpxchg() in riscv is based on atomic primitives and
has NMI-safe features, so it can be used safely in the in_nmi context.
ftrace's ringbuffer relies on NMI-safe cmpxchg() in the NMI context.
Currently, in_nmi() is true when riscv kprobe is in trap-based mode, so
this config needs to be selected, otherwise kprobetrace will not be
available.

Some RISC-V implementations may hang when attempting to write an
unsupported SATP mode, even though the latest RISC-V specification
states such writes should have no effect. To avoid this issue, the
logic for selecting SATP mode has been refined:
The kernel now determines the SATP mode limit by taking the minimum of
the value specified by the kernel command line (noXlvl) and the
"mmu-type" property in the device tree (FDT). If only one is specified,
use that.
- If the resulting limit is sv48 or higher, the kernel will probe SATP
modes from this limit downward until a supported mode is found.
- If the limit is sv39, the kernel will directly use sv39 without
probing.
This ensures SATP mode selection is safe and compatible with both
hardware and user configuration, minimizing the risk of hangs.

While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a
macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel.
This can be very confusing when switching between userspace
and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that
rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize on
the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers now.
This originally was a completely mechanical patch (done with a
simple "sed -i" statement), with some manual fixups during
rebasing of the patch later.

The kexec_buf structure was previously declared without initialization.
commit bf454ec31a ("kexec_file: allow to place kexec_buf randomly")
added a field that is always read but not consistently populated by all
architectures. This un-initialized field will contain garbage.
This is also triggering a UBSAN warning when the uninitialized data was
accessed:
------------[ cut here ]------------
UBSAN: invalid-load in ./include/linux/kexec.h:210:10
load of value 252 is not a valid value for type '_Bool'
Zero-initializing kexec_buf at declaration ensures all fields are
cleanly set, preventing future instances of uninitialized memory being
used.

The type of the value to write should be determined by the size of the
destination, not by the value itself, which may be a constant. This
aligns the behavior with x86_64, where __typeof__(*(__gu_ptr)) is used
to infer the correct type.
This fixes an issue in put_cmsg, which was only writing 4 out of 8
bytes to the cmsg_len field, causing the glibc tst-socket-timestamp test
to fail.

When building with CONFIG_CMODEL_MEDLOW and CONFIG_LTO_CLANG, there is a
series of errors due to some files being unconditionally compiled with
'-mcmodel=medany', mismatching with the rest of the kernel built with
'-mcmodel=medlow':
ld.lld: error: Function Import: link error: linking module flags 'Code Model': IDs have conflicting values: 'i32 3' from vmlinux.a(init.o at 899908), and 'i32 1' from vmlinux.a(net-traces.o at 1014628)
Only allow LTO to be performed when CONFIG_CMODEL_MEDANY is enabled to
ensure there will be no code model mismatch errors. An alternative
solution would be disabling LTO for the files with a different code
model than the main kernel like some specialized areas of the kernel do
but doing that for individual files is not as sustainable than
forbidding the combination altogether.
