This patch series optimizes riscv vector state handling across syscall
boundaries and context switches. The kernel now keeps track of the
INITIAL state in status.vs to optimize unnecessary context management
operations.

Patch summary:
 - Updated patches: 1, 2, 4

Changelog v4:
 - Fix a build warning (1)
 - Prevent setting INIT when it is already and provide performance
   meassurements (2)
 - Address comments from sashiko (4)

Changelog v3:
 - Refactor function names. (1, 2)
 - Merge daichengrong's patch, with a fix and optimzation. (2)
 - Fix ptrace GETREGSET failure. (3)
 - Strengthen ptrace SETREGSET semantics and add a test to cover it. (3,
   4)

   breaks. (3, 4)
