If we're going to provide the encoding for 'pause' in cpu_relax()
anyway, then we can drop the toolchain checks and just always use
it. The advantage of doing this is that other code that need
pause don't need to also define it (yes, another use is coming).
Add the definition to insn-def.h since it's an instruction
definition and also because insn-def.h doesn't include much, so
it's safe to include from asm/vdso/processor.h without concern for
circular dependencies.

Actually it is a part of Conor's
commit aae538cd03bc ("riscv: fix detection of toolchain
Zihintpause support").
It is looks like a merge issue. Samuel's
commit 0b1d60d6dd9e ("riscv: Fix build with
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y") do not base on Conor's commit and
revert to __riscv_zihintpause. So this patch can fix it.

This is a single fix, but it conflicts with some recent features. I'm
merging it on top of the commit it fixes to ease backporting.

commit 8eb060e10185 ("arch/riscv: add Zihintpause support") broke

Having a static branch in cpu_relax() is problematic because that
function is widely inlined, including in some quite complex functions
like in the VDSO. A quick measurement shows this static branch is
responsible by itself for around 40% of the jump table.
Drop the static branch, which ends up being the same number of
instructions anyway. If Zihintpause is supported, we trade the nop from
the static branch for a div. If Zihintpause is unsupported, we trade the
jump from the static branch for (what gets interpreted as) a nop.

It is not sufficient to check if a toolchain supports a particular
extension without checking if the linker supports that extension
too. For example, Clang 15 supports Zihintpause but GNU bintutils
2.35.2 does not, leading build errors like so:
riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: -march=rv64i2p0_m2p0_a2p0_c2p0_zihintpause2p0: Invalid or unknown z ISA extension: 'zihintpause'
Add a TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ZIHINTPAUSE which checks if each of the compiler,
assembler and linker support the extension. Replace the ifdef in the
vdso with one depending on this new symbol.

Implement support for the ZiHintPause extension.
The PAUSE instruction is a HINT that indicates the current hart’s rate
of instruction retirement should be temporarily reduced or paused.

riscv's <vdso/processor.h> uses barrier() so it should include
<asm/barrier.h>
Fixes this build error:
CC [M] drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_main.o
In file included from ./include/vdso/processor.h:10,
from ./arch/riscv/include/asm/processor.h:11,

./arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso/processor.h:14:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'barrier' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
14 | barrier();
This happens with a total of 5 networking drivers -- they all use
<linux/prefetch.h>.
rv64 allmodconfig now builds cleanly after this patch.

Even if RISC-V has supported the vDSO feature, the latency of the functions
for obtaining the system time is still expensive. It is because these
functions still trigger a corresponding system call in the process, which
slows down the response time. If we want to remove the system call to
reduce the latency, the kernel should have the ability to output the system
clock information to userspace. This patch introduces the vDSO common flow
to enable the kernel to achieve the above feature and uses "rdtime"
instruction to obtain the current time in the user space. Under this
condition, the latency cost by the ecall from U-mode to S-mode can be
eliminated. After applying this patch, the latency of gettimeofday()
measured on the HiFive unleashed board can be reduced by %61.
