__late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() are only used after
early_ioremap_reset() has been called, but the comment above them does
not say anything about that. So arm64, riscv and powerpc, whose
__set_fixmap() works before and after paging_init(), describe the same
situation in three different ways:
calls reset defines the macros
arm64 yes yes
riscv no yes
powerpc no no
Patch 1 documents when early_ioremap_reset() needs to be called and
that only architectures calling it need to define the macros.
Patches 2 and 3 remove the unneeded riscv macros, which are
unreachable, and the arm64 reset call and macros, which change
nothing.
No functional change.

On arm64, __early_set_fixmap(), __late_set_fixmap() and
__late_clear_fixmap() are all __set_fixmap(). Calling
early_ioremap_reset() changes nothing. So remove the call and the
macros.
No functional change.
