riscv: Add support for the tagged address ABI
When pointer masking is enabled for userspace, the kernel can accept tagged pointers as arguments to some system calls. Allow this by untagging the pointers in access_ok() and the uaccess routines. The uaccess routines must peform untagging in software because U-mode and S-mode have entirely separate pointer masking configurations. In fact, hardware may not even implement pointer masking for S-mode. Since the number of tag bits is variable, untagged_addr_remote() needs to know what PMLEN to use for the remote mm. Therefore, the pointer masking mode must be the same for all threads sharing an mm. Enforce this with a lock flag in the mm context, as x86 does for LAM. The flag gets reset in init_new_context() during fork(), as the new mm is no longer multithreaded.
