Vector code is written in assembly rather than using the GCC vector
instrinsics because they did not provide optimal code. Vector
instrinsic types are still used so the inline assembly can
appropriately select vector registers. However, this code cannot be
merged yet because it is currently not possible to use vector
instrinsics in the kernel because vector support needs to be directly
enabled by assembly.

I added the check for vector as Samuel suggested, but then I
accidentally used riscv_v_enable() instead of kernel_vector_begin(), I
will make that change.

Silly question maybe, but is this complexity required?
If you were to go and do
if (!has_vector())
goto no_vector
is there any meaningful difference difference in performance?

Also, could you please try to align the operands for asm stuff?
It makes quite a difference to readability.
