[PATCH v3 2/7] riscv: smp: fail booting up smp if inconsistent vlen is detected

Currently we only support Vector for SMP platforms, that is, all SMP
cores have the same vlenb. If we happen to detect a mismatching vlen, it
is better to just fail bootting it up to prevent further race/scheduling
issues.

Also, move .Lsecondary_park forward and chage `tail smp_callin` into a
regular call in the early assembly. So a core would be parked right
after a return from smp_callin. Note that a successful smp_callin
does not return.
