[PATCH] target/riscv: Remove experimental prefix from "B" extension

[PATCH] target/riscv: Remove experimental prefix from "B" extension

[Rob Bradford]

This extension has now been ratified:
https://jira.riscv.org/browse/RVS-2006 so the "x-" prefix can be
removed.

I think we should also either change the false to true for RVB in
misa_ext_cfgs[] or at least ensure RVB is set for the 'max' cpu
type in riscv_init_max_cpu_extensions().

I prefer if we keep misa_ext_cfgs[] as is. Changing the defaults in this array
will also change the defaults for rv64. IMO we should enable RVB manually in
riscv_init_max_cpu_extensions().

We already have some precedence for it: RVV is enabled in 'max' while is default
'false' for rv64.

But do we care if rv64 gets B? rv64 doesn't have any particular set of
extensions, afaik. And B seems like it should be generally adopted enough
to be in a "general" cpu type like rv64. Anyway, either way works for me
as long as 'max' gets B one way or another.

Yes, as long as we enable it in 'max' it's good enough for this patch.

It's not like we're enabling extensions in rv64 just because they were ratified
(e.g. RVV isn't enabled in rv64), so even if we want to enable RVB in rv64 I'd
rather do it in a separated patch with a proper justification.

Just to be clear, do you mind enabling RVB as part of
riscv_init_max_cpu_extensions() as part of this patch
