* [riscv] Hold virtual address offset in the thread pointer registerMichael Brown2025-05-111-0/+33
iPXE does not make use of any thread-local storage. Use the otherwise unused thread pointer register ("tp") to hold the current value of the virtual address offset, rather than using a global variable. This ensures that virt_offset can be made valid even during very early initialisation (when iPXE may be executing directly from read-only memory and so cannot update a global variable).
