If the hardware unaligned access speed is known at compile time, it is
possible to avoid running the unaligned access speed probe to speedup
boot-time.

Changes in v9:
- Clarify wording for RISCV_MISALIGNED Kconfig option
- Link to v8: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240307-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v8-0-55d696cb398b@rivosinc.com

Changes in v8:
- Minor commit message changes (Conor)
- Clean up hwprobe_misaligned() (Conor)
- Link to v7: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240306-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v7-0-6c90419e7a96@rivosinc.com

Changes in v7:
- Fix check_unaligned_access_emulated_all_cpus to return false when any
  cpu has emulated accesses
- Fix wording in Kconfig (Conor)
- Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240301-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v6-0-612ebd69f430@rivosinc.com

Changes in v6:
- Consolidate Kconfig into 4 options (probe, emulated, slow,
  efficient)
- Change the behavior of "emulated" to allow hwprobe to return "slow" if
  unaligned accesses are not emulated by the kernel
- With this consolidation, check_unaligned_access_emulated is able to be
  moved back into the original file (traps_misaligned.c)
- Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240227-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v5-0-b6853846e27a@rivosinc.com

Changes in v5:
- Clarify Kconfig options from Conor's feedback
- Use "unaligned" instead of "misaligned" in introduced file/function.
  This is a bit hard to standardize because the riscv manual says
  "misaligned" but the existing Linux configs say "unaligned".
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240216-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v4-0-dc01e581c0ac@rivosinc.com

Changes in v4:
- Add additional Kconfig options for the other unaligned access speeds
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240202-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v3-0-c44f91f03bb6@rivosinc.com

Changes in v3:
- Revert change to csum (Eric)
- Change ifndefs for ifdefs (Eric)
- Change config in Makefile (Elliot/Eric)
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240201-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v2-0-77c368bed7b2@rivosinc.com

Changes in v2:
- Move around definitions to reduce ifdefs (Clément)
- Make RISCV_MISALIGNED depend on !HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
  (Clément)
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240131-disable_misaligned_probe_config-v1-0-98d155e9cda8@rivosinc.com
