KVM: selftests: riscv: Fix alignment of the guest_hang() function
[ Upstream commit ebdef0de2dbc40e697adaa6b3408130f7a7b8351 ]
The guest_hang() function is used as the default exception handler
for various KVM selftests applications by setting it's address in
the vstvec CSR. The vstvec CSR requires exception handler base address
to be at least 4-byte aligned so this patch fixes alignment of the
guest_hang() function.
