riscv: prevent null-pointer dereference with

A patch from »svpbmt and t-head memory types« in state Mainline for linux-kernel

Commit-Message

The callback used inside sbi_remote_fence_i is set at sbi probe time to the needed variant. Before that it is a NULL pointer. The selection between using sbi_remote_fence_i or ipi_remote_fence_i right now is solely done on the presence of the RISCV_SBI config option. On a multiplatform kernel, SBI will probably always be built in, but in the future not all machines using that kernel may have SBI on them, so in some cases this setup can lead to NULL pointer dereferences. Also if in future one of the flush_icache_all / flush_icache_mm functions gets called earlier in the boot process - before sbi_init - this would trigger the issue. To prevent this, add a default __sbi_rfence_none returning an error code and adapt the callers to check for an error from the remote fence to then fall back to the other method.
