[RFC PATCH 11/12] riscv: Kconfig & Makefile for riscv kernel control flow integrity

[Deepak Gupta <debug@rivosinc.com>]

Defines `CONFIG_RISCV_KERNEL_CFI` and selects SHADOW_CALL_STACK
and DYNAMIC_SCS both so that zicfiss can be wired up.

Makefile checks if CONFIG_RISCV_KERNEL_CFI is enabled, then light
up zicfiss and zicfilp compiler flags.

+	  Provides CPU assisted control flow integrity to for riscv kernel.
+	  Control flow integrity is provided by implementing shadow stack for
+	  backward edge and indirect branch tracking for forward edge. Shadow
+	  stack protection is a hardware feature that detects function return
+	  address corruption. This helps mitigate ROP attacks. RISCV_KERNEL_CFI
+	  selects CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK which uses software based shadow
+	  stack but is unprotected against stray writes. Selecting RISCV_KERNEL_CFI
+	  will select CONFIG_DYNAMIC_SCS and will enable hardware assisted shadow
+	  stack protection against stray writes.
+	  Indirect branch tracking enforces that all indirect branches must land
+	  on a landing pad instruction else CPU will fault. This enables forward
+	  control flow (call/jmp) protection in kernel and restricts all indirect
+	  call or jump in kernel to a landing pad instruction which mostly likely
+	  will be start of the function.
