[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 1/6] lavu/riscv: assembly for zicfilp LPAD

["Rémi Denis-Courmont" <remi@remlab.net>]

This instruction, if aligned on a 4-byte boundary, defines a valid target
("landing pad") for an indirect call or jump. Since this instruction is a
HINT, it is safe to assemble even if not included in the target
instruction set architecture.

The necessary alignment is already provided by the `func` macro. However
this still lacks the ELF attribute to indicate that the zicfilp is supported
in simple mode. This is left for future work as the ELF specification is not
ratified as of yet.

This will also nonobviously require the assembler to support zicfilp,
insofar as the `tail` pseudo-instruction shall clobber T2 (instead of T1) as
its temporary register.
