These ended up getting rejected by Linus, so I'm going to hold off on
this for now.  If they're really out of lib/ then I'll take the C
routines in arch/riscv, but either way it's an issue for the next
release.

Agree, we should take the C routine in arch/riscv for common
implementation. If any vendor what custom implementation they could
use the alternative framework in errata for string operations.

I though the asm ones were significantly faster because
they were less affected by read latency.

(But they were horribly broken for misaligned transfers.)
