Subject: [RFC PATCH 03/11] RISC-V: Setup exception vector early

The trap vector is set only in trap_init which may be too late in some
cases. Early ioremap/efi spits many warning messages which may be useful.

Setup the trap vector early so that any warning/bug can be handled before
generic code invokes trap_init.
