riscv: alternatives: move length validation inside the subsection

Apply the same fix from commit 966a0acce2fc ("arm64/alternatives: move
length validation inside the subsection") to riscv.  Due to the one-pass
design of LLVM's integrated assembler, it can not compute the length of
instructions if the .org directive is outside of the subsection that these
instructions are in.

Here is the build error reported by llvm:
