Historically, we have been enabling all interrupts for each
HART in trap_init(). Ideally, we should only enable M-mode
interrupts for M-mode kernel and S-mode interrupts for S-mode
kernel in trap_init().

Currently, we get suprious S-mode interrupts on Kendryte K210
board running M-mode NO-MMU kernel because we are enabling all
interrupts in trap_init(). To fix this, we only enable software
and external interrupt in trap_init(). In future, trap_init()
will only enable software interrupt and PLIC driver will enable
external interrupt using CPU notifiers.

I think we should add a proper interrupt controller driver for the per-hart
interrupt controllers, as doing this within the other drivers is ugly -- for
example, there's no reason an MMIO timer or interrupt controller driver should
be toggling these bits.

I'd argue this actually fixes the M-mode stuff, since that's the first place
this issue shows up. I've queued this with

Fixes: a4c3733d32a7 ("riscv: abstract out CSR names for supervisor vs machine mode")

instead, as that's the first commit that will actually write to MIE and
therefor the first commit that will actually exhibit bad behavior. It also has
the advantage of making the patch apply on older trees, which should make life
easier for the stable folks.

Looks good.

I consider this a bugfix, so I'm targeting it for RCs. It's on fixes and
should go up this week.

Thanks!
