Subject: [RFC PATCH v7 00/21] riscv: Add vector ISA support

This patchset is implemented based on vector 0.9+ spec to add vector support
in riscv Linux kernel. To make this happen, we defined a new structure
__riscv_v_state to save the vector related registers. It is used for both
kernel space and user space. In kernel space, the datap pointer in
__riscv_v_state will be allocated dynamically to save vector registers.
In signal handler of user space, datap will point to the address right
after the __riscv_v_state data structure to save vector registers in stack.
In ptrace, the data will be put in ubuf in which we can get/put the
__riscv_v_state data structure from/to it, datap pointer would be zeroed and
vector registers will be copied to the address right after the
__riscv_v_state structure in ubuf. This patchset also adds support for kernel
mode vector, kernel XOR implementation with vector ISA and includes several
bug fixes and code refinement.

This patchset is rebased to v5.9-rc4 and it is tested by running several
vector programs simultaneously. It also can get the correct ucontext_t in
signal handler and restore correct context after sigreturn. It is also
tested with ptrace() syscall to use PTRACE_GETREGSET/PTRACE_SETREGSET to
get/set the vector registers. I have tested vlen=128 and vlen=256 cases in
spike machine of qemu-system-riscv64 provided by Zhiwei Lui and Frank Chang
and also tested in spike with vlen=64 to vlen=4096 settings.

We also sent patches to glibc mailing list for ifunc support and sigcontext
changes.
