Subject: [PATCH -next V17 6/7] riscv: entry: Consolidate ret_from_kernel_thread into ret_from_fork

From: Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@...nel.org>

The ret_from_kernel_thread() behaves similarly with ret_from_fork(),
the only difference is whether call the fn(arg) or not, this can be
achieved by testing fn is NULL or not, I.E s0 is 0 or not. Many
architectures have done the same thing, it makes entry.S more clean.
