Hi Nick, Nathan, Palmer,

I saw the series has been applied to riscv-next, so I'm not sure which
solution would it be, Palmer to apply Nick's patch to riscv-next or
I to send out v3, any suggestion is appreciated.

I don't see what you are seeing w/ riscv/for-next. HEAD is currently at
4681dacadeef ("riscv: replace deprecated scall with ecall") and there
are no patches from your series in the branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/riscv/linux.git/log/?h=for-next

It's been in and out of staging a few times as we tracked down the performance regression, but it shouldn't have ever made it to linux-next for real.

I'm fine just picking up the patch to disable DCE, I've got a few other (hopefully small) things to work through first though.

Cheers,
Conor.
