I missed that important part: it's for user space.
Thx.

I agree. It will be more useful to have the flag like `VECTOR_MISALIGNED_FAST`
instead.

I will skip the Zicclsm part in my v2 patch.

All crypto algorithms will assume that the vector supports misaligned access in next
v2 patch.
And the algorithms will also not check for `RISCV_HWPROBE_MISALIGNED_*` since
it's related to scalar accesses.
Once we have the vector performance related flag, we could go back here to use it.
