Yes, I am aware of this.

Paul had raised similar concerns so we are using bitmap to tackle this

For example:
BIT['h' - 'a'] represents whether 'h' extension is present or not
In future, when we have incremental hxyz change in 'h' extension
we will assign some bitpostion Bhxyz for this and BIT[Bhxyz]
will represent whether 'hxyz' is present or not.

Please see previous comment.

Here 256 is a ballpark size of bitmap. If you have any preferences then
I can change to that value. I am sure this value will change in the future.

This is used by KVM RISC-V patches hence it is part of KVM RISC-V series.

I agree that ISA string parsing is not perfect and will improve over time but
ISA bitmap should have all the features set as provided via CPU DT nodes.

We allow KVM RISC-V initialization to proceed only when 'H' extension is
supported.
