At present there is only one Kconfig option CONFIG_SIFIVE_CLINT to control the enabling of SiFive CLINT support in both SPL (M-mode) and U-Boot proper (S-mode). So for a typical SPL config that the SiFive CLINT driver is enabled in both SPL and U-Boot proper, that means the S-mode U-Boot tries to access the memory-mapped CLINT registers directly, instead of the normal 'rdtime' instruction.
This was not a problem before, as the hardware does not forbid the access from S-mode. However this becomes an issue now with OpenSBI commit 8b569803475e ("lib: utils/sys: Add CLINT memregion in the root domain") that the SiFive CLINT register space is protected by PMP for M-mode access only. U-Boot proper does not boot any more with the latest OpenSBI, that access exceptions are fired forever from U-Boot when trying to read the timer value via the SiFive CLINT driver in U-Boot.
To solve this, we need to split current SiFive CLINT support between SPL and U-Boot proper, using 2 separate Kconfig options.
