Subject: [PATCH] Revert "riscv: Remove CONFIG_PHYS_RAM_BASE_FIXED"
This reverts commit 9b79878ced8f7ab85c57623f8b1f6882e484a316.
The removal of this config exposes CONFIG_PHYS_RAM_BASE for all kernel
types: this value being implementation-specific, this breaks the
genericity of the RISC-V kernel so revert it.

Execute-In-Place allows the kernel to run from non-volatile storage
