RISC-V: Moved syscalls to separate files to fix aliasing problems.

struct kernel_stat kst;
Only pass the minimum number of syscall arguments Previously, __internal_syscall() compiled into asm-code that unconditionally sets the syscall argument registers a0 to a5. For example, the instruction sequence for a exit syscall looked like this: li a0, 1 # in ther caller of exit() # ... # in newlib: li a1, 0 # unused arguments li a2, 0 li a3, 0 li a4, 0 li a5, 0 li a7, 93 # exit syscall number (i.e. the binary contains then 5 superfluous instructions for this one argument syscall) This commit changes the RISC-V syscall code such that only the required syscall argument registers are set. GCC detects that argc is known at compile time and thus evaluates all the if-statements where argc is used at compile time (tested with -O2 and -Os).
