Thank you!
I ran this patch against the test_bpf.ko, and selftests/bpf -- no
regressions, and after the patch is applied more tests passes. Yay!
On a related note. The RISC-V selftests/bpf is in a pretty lousy
state. I'll send a cleanup patch for them soonish. E.g.:
* RISC-V is missing in bpf_tracing.h (libbpf)
* Some programs don't converge in 16 steps, I had to increase it to ~32
* The selftest/bpf Makefile needed some RV specific changes
* ...a lot of tests still don't pass, and needs to be looked in to
