Subject: [PATCH 1/1] riscv: Enable compiler optimizations

Enable ARCH_HAS_FAST_MULTIPLIER and ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128 for better
code generation.
These 2 configurations works fine on GCC-9.3 and GCC-10.1

IIRC int128 is only supported on 64-bit targets, and we already have this under
RV64I but with a different set of requirements. It looks like everyone has a
different set of requirements, but I feel like CC_HAS_INT128 is the right way
to go. I'm not sure why we have the version check there. Ard: do you know why
we would need both?

The fast multiplier one looks fine to me. They're supposed to stay
alphabetical, though.

That looks like copy/paste from the arm64 tree to me, where the names
of the libgcc routines were changed at some point, and we only support
the newer ones in the kernel.
