From: Andrew Jones <redacted> Add B to hwcap and ensure when B is present that Zba, Zbb, and Zbs are all set. Also expose B via hwprobe (RISCV_HWPROBE_EXT_B in RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_IMA_EXT_1) so that userspace can probe B directly, mirroring the F/D/C/V pattern where each is reported via both hwcap and hwprobe.

Hello Guodong, The RISC-V Unpriviledged ISA specification has this description of extension B: "The B standard extension comprises instructions provided by the Zba, Zbb, and Zbs extensions." __RISCV_ISA_EXT_SUPERSET would imply that something else but riscv_b_exts is in B. But such an extra seems not to exist. So shouldn't __RISCV_ISA_EXT_BUNDLE be used here? Some code further change may be needed to set extension B if riscv_b_exts is fulfilled. Best regads Heinrich
