This series adds initial support for RISC-V trace framework and drivers.
The RISC-V trace v1.0 specification is already ratified and can be found at:
https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/e-trace-encap/releases/tag/v1.0.0-ratified
https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/tg-nexus-trace/releases/tag/1.0_Ratified

The RISC-V trace framework and drivers are designed to be agnostic to the
underlying trace protocol hence both RISC-V E-trace and RISC-V N-trace should
work fine. The discovery of trace protocl parameters are left to user-space
trace decoder.

In ther future, there will be subsequent series adding:
1) Sysfs support
2) ACPI support
3) More trace drivers (such as funnel, ATB, etc)
4) Support for upcoming self-hosted trace specification
5) ... and more ...

These patches can also be found in the riscv_trace_support_v1 branch at:
https://github.com/avpatel/linux.git

To test the patches, we need QEMU virt machine with RISC-V trace support
which can be found in rv-etrace branch at:
https://gitlab.com/danielhb/qemu.git

To capture rvtrace data using perf on QEMU virt machine do the following:
1) Launch QEMU virt machine
   $ qemu-system-riscv64 -nographic -M virt -smp 2 -bios fw_dynamic.bin \
     -kernel Image -append "root=/dev/vda rw console=ttyS0 earlycon=sbi" \
     -drive file=/path/to/rootfs.img,id=disk1,if=none,format=raw \
     -device virtio-blk-device,drive=disk1
2) Run perf record to capture rvtrace data
   $ perf record --all-cpus -e rvtrace/event=0x1/ <command>
3) The step2 would create a perf.data file which has the rvtrace data.
   Now run perf report -D and look for PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE event
   section(s) which point(s) to the actual rvtrace data offset.
