I think we didn't get the memo: https://github.com/riscv/riscv-isa-manual/pull/906

The code looks fine to me, so

though I don't have an opinion on whether libitm should be taking ports 
to new targets, I'd never even heard of it before.

Some minor comments:

Many of the ABIs require 16-byte stack alignment.

Also: it doesn't hurt anything to use the extra stack, but we only 
stricly need space for the FPRs if we're going to bother saving them.

Maybe we should have a placeholder libc/vdso routine for the cache line 
size?  The specs are sort of just a suggestion for that sort of thing.

We have Zihintpause now, but that's a pretty minor optimization.
