The ISA strings we're providing from QEMU aren't actually legal RISC-V
ISA strings, as both S and U cannot exist as single-letter extensions
and must instead be multi-letter strings.  We're still using the ISA
strings inside QEMU to track the availiable extensions, so this patch
just strips out the S and U extensions when formatting ISA strings.

This boots Linux on top of 4.1-rc3, which no longer has the U extension
in /proc/cpuinfo.
