Binutils-2.38 and GCC-12.1.0 bumped[0][1] the default ISA spec to the newer
20191213 version which moves some instructions from the I extension to the
Zicsr and Zifencei extensions. So if one of the binutils and GCC exceeds
that version, we should explicitly specifying Zicsr and Zifencei via -march
to cope with the new changes. but this only occurs when binutils >= 2.36
and GCC >= 11.1.0. It's a different story when binutils < 2.36.

Here is the summary with links:
- [v5] riscv: Handle zicsr/zifencei issue between gcc and binutils
https://git.kernel.org/riscv/c/ca09f772ccca
*sigh* so this breaks the build for gcc-11 & binutils 2.37 w/
Assembler messages:
Error: cannot find default versions of the ISA extension `zicsr'
Error: cannot find default versions of the ISA extension `zifencei'
I'll have a poke later.
So uh, are we sure that this should not be:
- depends on (CC_IS_CLANG && CLANG_VERSION < 170000) || (CC_IS_GCC && GCC_VERSION < 110100)
+ depends on (CC_IS_CLANG && CLANG_VERSION < 170000) || (CC_IS_GCC && GCC_VERSION <= 110100)
My gcc-11.1 + binutils 2.37 toolchain built from riscv-gnu-toolchain
doesn't have the default versions & the above diff fixes the build.
I reproduced the error, the combination of gcc-11.1 and
binutils 2.37 does cause errors. What a surprise, since binutils
2.36 and 2.38 are fine.
I used git bisect to locate this commit[1] for binutils.
I'll test this diff in more detail later. Thanks!
