You're adding an implementation, not adding a lack of implementation 
(you're adding the implementation of the pieces that are needed by the 
RISC-V 32-bit port).  The same point applies to the proposed summary line 
for the commit.

Please see the GNU Coding Standards for how to write ChangeLog entries.  
In this case, you need to list all the new macros individually.

A previous review comment suggested a loop here.  You expressed a 
performance concern in 
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-07/msg00929.html>.  Have you 
done any benchmarking since then to justify the concern and not making the 
suggested change?
