riscv: prevent stack corruption by reserving task_pt_regs(p) early
Early function calls, such as setup_vm(), relocate_enable_mmu(), soc_early_init() etc, are free to operate on stack. However, PT_SIZE_ON_STACK bytes at the head of the kernel stack are purposedly reserved for the placement of per-task register context pointed by task_pt_regs(p). Those functions may corrupt task_pt_regs if we overlap the $sp with it. In fact, we had accidentally corrupted sstatus.VS in some tests, treating the kernel to save V context before V was actually allocated, resulting in a kernel panic. Thus, we should skip PT_SIZE_ON_STACK for $sp before making C function calls from the top-level assembly.
