Subject: [PATCH] arch-riscv: Copy Misc Regs when swiching cpus (#479)

Misc Regs might contain rather important information about the state of
a core, e.g., information in CSR registers.

This patch enforces copying the CSR registers when switching cpus. The
bug and the proposed fix are reported here [1].
