I tested this patch after dropping the CONFIG_ISA_RISCV_C test (see
below). Running "cat /proc/cpuinfo" generated the following kernel
warnings:

[ 73.412626] unsupported ISA extensions "su" in device tree for cpu [0]
[ 73.418417] unsupported ISA extensions "su" in device tree for cpu [1]
[ 73.424912] unsupported ISA extensions "su" in device tree for cpu [2]
[ 73.431425] unsupported ISA extensions "su" in device tree for cpu [3]

Seems like the "su" should be dropped from mandatory_ext. What do you
think?

There's no Kconfig option by this name, and we're requiring compressed
instruction support as part of the RISC-V Linux baseline. Could you share
the rationale behind this? Looks to me like this should be dropped.
