    riscv: lib: uaccess: fold fixups into body
    
    [ Upstream commit 9d504f9aa5c1b76673018da9503e76b351a24b8c ]
    
    uaccess functions such __asm_copy_to_user(),  __arch_copy_from_user()
    and __clear_user() place their exception fixups in the `.fixup` section
    without any clear association with themselves. If we backtrace the
    fixup code, it will be symbolized as an offset from the nearest prior
    symbol.
    
    Similar as arm64 does, we must move fixups into the body of the
    functions themselves, after the usual fast-path returns.
