Add sign extension to the $badaddr before addressing the instruction page fault and instruction access fault to workaround the issue "cip-453". To avoid affecting the existing code sequence, this patch will creates two trampolines to add sign extension to the $badaddr. By the "alternative" mechanism, these two trampolines will replace the original exception handler of instruction page fault and instruction access fault in the excp_vect_table. In this case, only the specific SiFive CPU core jumps to the do_page_fault and do_trap_insn_fault through these two trampolines. Other CPUs are not affected.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
