Branch predictor flush missing signal. Bug?

[gm-openchip]

Hi,
I can't find any info on why the flush_bp_i signal, input to i_frontend in cva6.sv is tied to 0.

cva6/core/cva6.sv

Line 682 in 89986df

.flush_bp_i (1'b0),

It seems to always have been like this since the first commit.
I checked in my emulation run and the missing flush is triggering some bad prediction during kernel boot. In particular, it seems that while in M-MODE (sbi calls) bp still contains "dirty addresses" from previous Linux Kernel operations (S-Mode).

Since in M-Mode MMU translation is disabled, from time to time, a virtual address passes through and causes FE_INSTR_ACCESS_FAULT.

This seems not be causing any issue, but just curious if it's a bug or a wanted feature.

PS: flush_ctrl_bp (https://github.com/openhwgroup/cva6/blob/89986dfe867dada9752eee19a4ed4a9d274484a6/core/cva6.sv#L1300C31-L1300C44) is correctly generating flushes, but is not tied to anything..
