In /proc/cpuinfo, most of the information we show for each processor is specific to that hart: marchid, mvendorid, mimpid, processor, hart, compatible, and the mmu size. But the ISA string gets filtered through a lowest common denominator mask, so that if one CPU is missing an ISA extension, no CPUs will show it. Now that we track the ISA extensions for each hart, let's report ISA extension info accurately per-hart in /proc/cpuinfo. We cannot change the "isa:" line, as usermode may be relying on that line to show only the common set of extensions supported across all harts. Add a new "hart isa" line instead, which reports the true set of extensions for that hart.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
