Hey Jinyu,
Firstly, the "for riscv" in the title is redundant and can be dropped.

So, and this just may be may lack of knowledge showing, but I don't
really understand _why_ we need this change. Your commit message should
explain why you are making the change rather than just repeating what
you are doing since that is obvious from the diff.

Only MIPS seems to have this define, so your commit message needs to
explain what it is about RISC-V that means we need it when all bar one
arch does not.

Thanks,
Conor.
