Allow LTO to be selected for RISC-V, only when LLD >= 14, since there is
an issue [1] in prior LLD versions that prevents LLD to generate proper
machine code for RISC-V when writing `nop`s.
To avoid boot failures in QEMU [2], '-mattr=+c' and '-mattr=+relax'
need to be passed via '-mllvm' to ld.lld, as there appears to be an
issue with LLVM's target-features and LTO [3], which can result in
incorrect relocations to branch targets [4]. Once this is fixed in LLVM,
it can be made conditional on affected ld.lld versions.
Disable LTO for arch/riscv/kernel/pi, as llvm-objcopy expects an ELF
object file when manipulating the files in that subfolder, rather than
LLVM bitcode.

KASLR implementation relies on a relocatable kernel so that we can move
the kernel mapping.
The seed needed to virtually move the kernel is taken from the device tree,
so we rely on the bootloader to provide a correct seed. Zkr could be used
unconditionnally instead if implemented, but that's for another patch.

kernel/pi gives rise to a lot of new sections that end up orphans: the
first attempt to fix that tried to enumerate them all in the linker
script, but kernel test robot with a random config keeps finding more of
them.
So prefix all those sections with .init.pi instead of only .init in
order to be able to easily catch them all in the linker script.

Add 2 early command line parameters that allow to downgrade satp mode
(using the same naming as x86):
- "no5lvl": use a 4-level page table (down from sv57 to sv48)
- "no4lvl": use a 3-level page table (down from sv57/sv48 to sv39)
Note that going through the device tree to get the kernel command line
works with ACPI too since the efi stub creates a device tree anyway with
the command line.
In KASAN kernels, we can't use the libfdt that early in the boot process
since we are not ready to execute instrumented functions. So instead of
using the "generic" libfdt, we compile our own versions of those functions
that are not instrumented and that are prefixed so that they do not
conflict with the generic ones. We also need the non-instrumented versions
of the string functions and the prefixed versions of memcpy/memmove.
This is largely inspired by commit aacd149b62 ("arm64: head: avoid
relocating the kernel twice for KASLR") from which I removed compilation
flags that were not relevant to RISC-V at the moment (LTO, SCS). Also
note that we have to link with -z norelro to avoid ld.lld to throw a
warning with the new .got sections, like in commit 311bea3cb9 ("arm64:
link with -z norelro for LLD or aarch64-elf").
