RISC-V U-Boot expects the hart ID to be passed to it via register a0 by the previous boot stage. Machine mode firmware such as BBL and OpenSBI do this when starting their payload (U-Boot) in supervisor mode. If U-Boot is running in machine mode, this task must be handled by the boot ROM. Explicitly populate register a0 with the hart ID from the mhartid CSR to avoid possible problems on RISC-V processors with a boot ROM that does not handle this task.
