Re: [PATCH 01/19] RISC-V: improve .insn documentation

This patch updates the documentation for the .insn directive in the RISC-V assembler. It removes the incorrect comma from the documented syntax and updates the .word related text to reflect the current support for mapping symbols. The documentation change improves clarity and accuracy for developers using the .insn directive.
