[Impact]

 * Some drivers are available on other architectures but not on RISC-V.

 * Some things might work or look differently in RISC-V.
   Eg. RISC-V has an additional terminal font enabled.

 * The RISC-V kernel benefits less from testing done on other
   architectures.

[Test Plan]

 * Install the kernel on RISC-V and see what modules and features are
   enabled.

 * After aligning the RISC-V kernel config there should be fewer
   differences to other architectures.

[Where problems could occur]

 * Some options that are disabled on other architectures may be needed
   on RISC-V.

 * Some modules or features may be broken on RISC-V.

[Other Info]

 * When RISC-V config and annotations were added to the generic kernel
   the config was copied from the linux-riscv tree without modifications.
   This revealed a lot of differences to the other architectures and many
   of them were not annotated, so presumably the configs had just drifted
   apart over time.

Applied to kinetic:linux.
