Merge patch series "riscv: support kernel-mode Vector"

Andy Chiu <andy.chiu@sifive.com> says:

This series provides support running Vector in kernel mode.
Additionally, kernel-mode Vector can be configured to run without
turnning off preemption on a CONFIG_PREEMPT kernel. Along with the
suport, we add Vector optimized copy_{to,from}_user. And provide a
simple threshold to decide when to run the vectorized functions.

We decided to drop vectorized memcpy/memset/memmove for the moment due
to the concern of memory side-effect in kernel_vector_begin(). The
detailed description can be found at v9[0]

This series is composed by 4 parts:
 patch 1-4: adds basic support for kernel-mode Vector
 patch 5: includes vectorized copy_{to,from}_user into the kernel
 patch 6: refactor context switch code in fpu [1]
 patch 7-10: provides some code refactors and support for preemptible
             kernel-mode Vector.

This series can be merged if we feel any part of {1~4, 5, 6, 7~10} is
mature enough.

This patch is tested on a QEMU with V and verified that booting, normal
userspace operations all work as usual with thresholds set to 0. Also,
we test by launching multiple kernel threads which continuously executes
and verifies Vector operations in the background. The module that tests
these operation is expected to be upstream later.
