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.

v1 -> v2:
Remove the usage of static branch, use PAUSE if toolchain supports it
v2 -> v3:
Added the static branch back, cpu_relax() behavior is kept the same for
systems that do not support ZiHintPause
v3 -> v4:
Adopted the newly added unified static keys for extensions

Thanks, this is on for-next. It needs a sparse patch, which I put in as a link.
This breaks the C=1 build for all toolchains, not just new ones as your sparse
patch suggests. I amn't 100% what my CI is running, but I replicated this on
my own machine with:
Argh, I went poking around and my toolchain's binutils etc is newer than I thought.
Good for people searching on lore I suppose...
Sorry!
So just to be clear: you're saying this only breaks with new binutils?
I ask because Dao is also seeing some crashes, if it's breaking
arbitrary builds too then it's a stronger hint to revert it.
Conor.
