Good point, we don't need toolchain support for this bpf jit case.

Agree, it's not required. For this bpf jit case, we should drop these two dependencies.
BTW, Zbb is used in bpf jit, the usage there also doesn't depend on toolchain and
RISCV_ALTERNATIVE, but the Kconfig for RISCV_ISA_ZBB has forced the dependencies
due to Zbb assembly programming elsewhere.
Maybe we could just dynamically check the existence of RISCV_ISA_ZB* before jit code
emission? or introduce new config options for bpf jit? I prefer the first method and
welcome any comments.
Thanks,
Xiao
