[PATCH v6 3/4] riscv: Decouple emulated unaligned accesses from access speed

Detecting if a system traps into the kernel on an unaligned access
can be performed separately from checking the speed of unaligned
accesses. This decoupling will make it possible to selectively enable
or disable each of these checks as is done in the following patch.
