Palmer, did the riscv PR already go to Linus? If not yet, perhaps you could ship this series along with your PR to Linus during this merge window given the big net PR (incl. bpf) was already merged yesterday. So from our side only fixes ship to Linus. Otherwise we could take it into bpf-next for the next dev cycle if there are no objections, let us know. Thanks, Daniel
