Some RISC-V implementations may hang when attempting to write an
unsupported SATP mode, even though the latest RISC-V specification
states such writes should have no effect. To avoid this issue, the
logic for selecting SATP mode has been refined:
The kernel now determines the SATP mode limit by taking the minimum of
the value specified by the kernel command line (noXlvl) and the
"mmu-type" property in the device tree (FDT). If only one is specified,
use that.
- If the resulting limit is sv48 or higher, the kernel will probe SATP
modes from this limit downward until a supported mode is found.
- If the limit is sv39, the kernel will directly use sv39 without
probing.
This ensures SATP mode selection is safe and compatible with both
hardware and user configuration, minimizing the risk of hangs.

In preparation for adding Clang sanitizer coverage stack depth tracking
that can support stack depth callbacks:
- Add the new top-level CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE option which will be
implemented either with the stackleak GCC plugin, or with the Clang
stack depth callback support.
- Rename CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK as needed to CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE,
but keep it for anything specific to the GCC plugin itself.
- Rename all exposed "STACKLEAK" names and files to "KSTACK_ERASE" (named
for what it does rather than what it protects against), but leave as
many of the internals alone as possible to avoid even more churn.
While here, also split "prev_lowest_stack" into CONFIG_KSTACK_ERASE_METRICS,
since that's the only place it is referenced from.

Eliminate all GOT entries in the .pi section, by forcing hidden
visibility for all symbol references, which informs the compiler that
such references will be resolved at link time without the need for
allocating GOT entries.
Include linux/hidden.h in Makefile, like arm64, for the
hidden visibility attribute.

Now Kbuild provides reasonable defaults for objtool, sanitizers, and
profilers.
Remove redundant variables.
Note:
This commit changes the coverage for some objects:
- include arch/mips/vdso/vdso-image.o into UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV
- include arch/sparc/vdso/vdso-image-*.o into UBSAN
- include arch/sparc/vdso/vma.o into UBSAN
- include arch/x86/entry/vdso/extable.o into KASAN, KCSAN, UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV
- include arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso-image-*.o into KASAN, KCSAN, UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV
- include arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32-setup.o into KASAN, KCSAN, UBSAN, GCOV, KCOV
- include arch/x86/entry/vdso/vma.o into GCOV, KCOV
- include arch/x86/um/vdso/vma.o into KASAN, GCOV, KCOV
I believe these are positive effects because all of them are kernel
space objects.

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").
