Haicheng Li fc495b946a hv: riscv: irq: add interrupt initialization and handlers
This patch implements interrupt initialization and the basic
exception/interrupt handling flow on RISC-V.

init_interrupt() needs to be invoked during CPU initialization to
set up the trap vector and enable the interrupt.

RISC-V exception and interrupt handling includes:
- Saving and restoring CPU registers around traps
- Implementing handlers for:
  - Supervisor software interrupt
  - Supervisor timer interrupt
- Halting the CPU for all other interrupts and exceptions

------
TODOs:
1. add support for registering interrupt handlers via request_irq() and
   further adoption of the common IRQ framework.
2. add support for external interrupt.

ACRN Hypervisor
###############

The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and
an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on
a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a
reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the
"ACRN Device Model".

The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on
the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded
device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists
between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN
hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional
domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and
embedded devices.

You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_
website.
