riscv: set trap vector earlier
[ Upstream commit 6ad8735994b854b23c824dd6b1dd2126e893a3b4 ]
The exception vector of the booting hart is not set before enabling
the mmu and then still points to the value of the previous firmware,
typically _start. That makes it hard to debug setup_vm() when bad
things happen. So fix that by setting the exception vector earlier.
