Commit f0bddf50586d ("riscv: entry: Convert to generic entry") moved
syscall handling to C code, which exposed function pointer type
mismatches that trip fine-grained forward-edge Control-Flow Integrity
(CFI) checks as syscall handlers are all called through the same
syscall_t pointer type. To fix the type mismatches, implement pt_regs
based syscall wrappers similarly to x86 and arm64.

This patch is based on arm64 syscall wrappers added in commit
4378a7d4be30 ("arm64: implement syscall wrappers"), where the main goal
was to minimize the risk of userspace-controlled values being used
under speculation. This may be a concern for riscv in future as well.

Following other architectures, the syscall wrappers generate three
functions for each syscall; __riscv_&lt;compat_&gt;sys_&lt;name&gt; takes a pt_regs
pointer and extracts arguments from registers, __se_&lt;compat_&gt;sys_&lt;name&gt;
is a sign-extension wrapper that casts the long arguments to the
correct types for the real syscall implementation, which is named
__do_&lt;compat_&gt;sys_&lt;name&gt;.

Implement compat sys_call_table and some system call functions:
truncate64, ftruncate64, fallocate, pread64, pwrite64,
sync_file_range, readahead, fadvise64_64 which need argument
translation.
