While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a
macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel.
This can be very confusing when switching between userspace
and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that
rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize on
the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers now.
This originally was a completely mechanical patch (done with a
simple "sed -i" statement), with some manual fixups during
rebasing of the patch later.

DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS uses the word-at-a-time API for optimised string
comparisons in the vfs layer.
This patch implements support for load_unaligned_zeropad in much the
same way as has been done for arm64.
Here is the test program and step:
$ cat tt.c
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#define ITERATIONS 1000000
#define PATH "123456781234567812345678123456781"
int main(void)
{
unsigned long i;
struct stat buf;
for (i = 0; i < ITERATIONS; i++)
stat(PATH, &buf);
return 0;
}
$ gcc -O2 tt.c
$ touch 123456781234567812345678123456781
$ time ./a.out
Per my test on T-HEAD C910 platforms, the above test performance is
improved by about 7.5%.

extable relies on the MMU to work properly, so it's useless to
include __ex_table sections and build extable related functions for
!MMU case.

Inspired by commit 2e77a62cb3a6 ("arm64: extable: add a dedicated
uaccess handler"), do similar to riscv to add a dedicated uaccess
exception handler to update registers in exception context and
subsequently return back into the function which faulted, so we remove
the need for fixups specialized to each faulting instruction.
