Subject: [PATCH] RISC-V: Add the directive for alignment of stvec's value

The stvec's value must be 4 byte alignment by specification definition.
This directive avoids to stvec be set the non-alignment value by the
following code in head.S

 /* Point stvec to virtual address of intruction after satp write */
la a0, 1f
add a0, a0, a1
csrw stvec, a0
