Subject: [RFC PATCH v8 18/21] riscv: Fix an illegal instruction exception when accessing vlenb without enable vector first

It triggered an illegal instruction exception when accessing vlenb CSR
without enable vector first. To fix this issue, we should enable vector
before using it and disable vector after using it.
