In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

riscv: Fix kernel crash due to PR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL

When userspace does PR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL, but Supm extension is not
available, the kernel crashes:

Oops - illegal instruction [#1]
    [snip]
epc : set_tagged_addr_ctrl+0x112/0x15a

Fix it by checking if Supm is available.
