[PATCH v2 7/8] riscv: report misaligned accesses emulation to hwprobe

hwprobe provides a way to report if misaligned access are emulated. In
order to correctly populate that feature, we can check if it actually
traps when doing a misaligned access. This can be checked using an
exception table entry which will actually be used when a misaligned
access is done from kernel mode.
