[RFC PATCH v4 0/2] arch: riscv: cpu: Add callback to init each core

Add a callback interface, riscv_hart_early_init() to perform riscv CPU hart-dependent configuration for each hart. riscv_hart_early_init() is placed after stack of harts are initialized and before main boot hart is picked up. Several conditions should be aware of or avoided are listed:
- cannot access gd At the moment, gd hasn't initialized yet.
- all operations in riscv_hart_early_init() should only affect core itself For example, the operations for board level should be moved to mach_xxx() or board_init_xxx() functions instead.
- Common resource need protection if multicore Since all harts might enter riscv_hart_early_init() in parallel, common resource need a mechanism to handle race condition.
- A dummy implementation is added in ./arch/riscv/cpu/cpu.c The implementation is declared with '__weak' and can be overridden.
Changelogs: v4 - Revising the comments for riscv_hart_early_init() in [1/2] - Remove unnecessary braces and add reviewed-by in [2/2]

Add a callback riscv_hart_early_init() to ./arch/riscv/cpu/start.S to allow different riscv hart perform setup code for each hart as early as possible. Since all the harts enter the callback, they must be able to run the same setup.

I wonder if we could move the calls to icache_enable and dcache_enable into this function. Though this would have the consequence of enabling caches on all harts for CPUs which previously only enabled them for the boot hart. I think ax25 is the only CPU which currently does this. Bin, would this be an issue?

Good catch. I believe AX25 cache support is currently somehow broken?
I think Rick has to comment on this as he added this via commit:
commit 52923c6db7f00e0197ec894c8c1bb8a7681974bb Author: Rick Chen rick@andestech.com Date: Wed Nov 7 09:34:06 2018 +0800
riscv: cache: Implement i/dcache [status, enable, disable]
AndeStar RISC-V(V5) provide mcache_ctl register which can configure I/D cache as enabled or disabled.
This CSR will be encapsulated by CONFIG_RISCV_NDS. If you want to configure cache on AndeStar V5 AE350 platform. YOu can enable [*] AndeStar V5 ISA support by make menuconfig.
This approach also provide the expansion when the vender specific features are going to join in.

The original commit has i/d cache enabled on all harts. But it was later moved to boot hart due to SMP support.
However on the cleanup side, it looks only the boot hart calls i/d cache disable?
See arch/riscv/cpu/ax25/cpu.c:: cleanup_before_linux()
