Anyway, are you all really caring about riscv on a 5.4.y kernel?  Last I
checked, the riscv maintainers said not to even use that kernel for that
architecture.  Do you all have real boards that care about this kernel
tree that you are insisting on keeping alive?  Why not move them to a
newer LTS kernel?


Looking into the 5.4 release candidate, I see:

$ git log --oneline v5.4.289.. arch/riscv/
98d26e0254ff RISC-V: Don't enable all interrupts in trap_init()
574c5efceb70 riscv: prefix IRQ_ macro names with an RV_ namespace
c57ffe372502 riscv: Fix sleeping in invalid context in die()
98c62ee8bc75 riscv: Avoid enabling interrupts in die()
88cb873873ff RISC-V: Avoid dereferening NULL regs in die()
2a83ad25311e riscv: remove unused handle_exception symbol
8652d51931cc riscv: abstract out CSR names for supervisor vs machine mode

Why do you backport riscv patches to 5.4.y if you think they should not be
tested ? Shouldn't your question imply that there won't be any further
backports into 5.4.y for architecture(s) which are no longer supported
in that branch ?

Confused.
