Subject: [PATCH] riscv: Fix build with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y

commit 8eb060e10185 ("arch/riscv: add Zihintpause support") broke building with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE enabled (gcc 11.1.0):

Having a static branch in cpu_relax() is problematic because that function is widely inlined, including in some quite complex functions like in the VDSO. A quick measurement shows this static branch is responsible by itself for around 40% of the jump table.

Drop the static branch, which ends up being the same number of instructions anyway. If Zihintpause is supported, we trade the nop from the static branch for a div. If Zihintpause is unsupported, we trade the jump from the static branch for (what gets interpreted as) a nop.
