[PATCH v5 6/7] RISC-V: Report vector unaligned access speed hwprobe

[Jesse Taube <jesse@rivosinc.com>]

Detect if vector misaligned accesses are faster or slower than
equivalent vector byte accesses. This is useful for usermode to know
whether vector byte accesses or vector misaligned accesses have a better
bandwidth for operations like memcpy.

V1 -> V2:
 - Add Kconfig options
 - Add WORD_EEW to vec-copy-unaligned.S
V2 -> V3:
 - Remove unnecessary comment
 - Remove local_irq_enable
V3 -> V4:
 - Add preempt_disable/enable
 - Alphabetize includes in vec-copy-unaligned.S and unaligned_access_speed.c
 - Add duplicate comments above mb() to please checkpatch
 - change all_cpus_vec_supported to all_cpus_vec_unsupported
    so speed is tested if any cpus support unaligned vector accesses
 - Spell out _VECTOR_ in macros
V4 -> V5:
 - Change void *unused to void *unused __always_unused
