GCC allows users to hint to the register allocation that a variable should be
placed in a register by using a syntax along the lines of
function(...) {
register long in_REG __asm__("REG");
}
We've abused this a bit throughout the RISC-V port to access fixed registers
directly as C variables. In practice it's never going to blow up because GCC
isn't going to allocate these registers, but it's not a well defined syntax so
we really shouldn't be relying upon this. Luckily there is a very similar but
well defined syntax that allows us to still access these registers directly as
C variables, which is to simply declare the register variables globally. For
fixed variables this doesn't change the ABI.
LLVM disallows this ambiguous syntax, so this isn't just strictly a formatting
change.

There are many different formats in each header now, such as
_ASM_XXX_H, __ASM_XXX_H, _ASM_RISCV_XXX_H, RISCV_XXX_H, etc., This patch
tries to unify the format by using _ASM_RISCV_XXX_H, because the most
header use it now. This patch also adds the conditional to the headers
if they lost it.

This patch contains the implementation of tasks on RISC-V, most of which
is involved in task switching.
