[PATCH V2 0/2] Proposing custom CSR handling logic

Hi all,

My sincere apology that I missed the patch to include our own CSR table
into the patch series and there were plenty of typos.
Thus I'm sending out V2 of these tiny patches.

I agree with Alistair's comment on not introducing intrusive code which
will interfere the generic code structure. Yet since there are
possibilities that some custom CSRs/instructions could be once drafted/
proposed by vendors at first, and made themselves into the standard
as the implementation become widely adopted.

So in this patch set, we humbly utilzed a glib hash table for inserting
the `struct riscv_custom_csr_operations`, check if the CSR is a non
standard one, and then proceed the desired behavior.

Once the non-standard CSRs make themselves into the specification,
people could easily plug-and-use the code into CSR operation table
inside `csr.c`.

Ones may have concerns regarding the check code would introduce
further overhead. For those considerations, I guess it could be solved
by introducing a build option such as '--enable-riscv-vendor-features'
to toggle the code.

Cordially yours,
Ruinland ChuanTzu Tsai
