The generic KVM has support for VCPU requests which can be used
to do arch-specific work in the run-loop. We introduce remote
HFENCE functions which will internally use VCPU requests instead
of host SBI calls.
Advantages of doing remote HFENCEs as VCPU requests are:
1) Multiple VCPUs of a Guest may be running on different Host CPUs
so it is not always possible to determine the Host CPU mask for
doing Host SBI call. For example, when VCPU X wants to do HFENCE
on VCPU Y, it is possible that VCPU Y is blocked or in user-space
(i.e. vcpu->cpu < 0).
2) To support nested virtualization, we will be having a separate
shadow G-stage for each VCPU and a common host G-stage for the
entire Guest/VM. The VCPU requests based remote HFENCEs helps
us easily synchronize the common host G-stage and shadow G-stage
of each VCPU without any additional IPI calls.
This is also a preparatory patch for upcoming nested virtualization
support where we will be having a shadow G-stage page table for
each Guest VCPU.

We rename kvm_sbi_system_shutdown() to kvm_riscv_vcpu_sbi_system_reset()
and move it to vcpu_sbi.c so that it can be shared by SBI v0.1 shutdown
and SBI v0.3 SRST extension.

Currently, SBI APIs accept a hartmask that is generated from struct
cpumask. Cpumask data structure can hold upto NR_CPUs value. Thus, it
is not the correct data structure for hartids as it can be higher
than NR_CPUs for platforms with sparse or discontguous hartids.
Remove all association between hartid mask and struct cpumask.

With SBI v0.2, there may be more SBI extensions in future. It makes more
sense to group related extensions in separate files. Guest kernel will
choose appropriate SBI version dynamically.
Move the existing implementation to a separate file so that it can be
removed in future without much conflict.
