Merge tag 'riscv-for-linus-6.19-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/riscv/linux

Pull RISC-V fixes from Paul Walmsley:
 "Notable changes include a fix to close one common microarchitectural
  attack vector for out-of-order cores. Another patch exposed an
  omission in my boot test coverage, which is currently missing
  relocatable kernels. Otherwise, the fixes seem to be settling down for
  us.

   - Fix CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y boots by building Image files from
     vmlinux, rather than vmlinux.unstripped, now that the .modinfo
     section is included in vmlinux.unstripped

   - Prevent branch predictor poisoning microarchitectural attacks that
     use the syscall index as a vector by using array_index_nospec() to
     clamp the index after the bounds check (as x86 and ARM64 already
     do)

   - Fix a crash in test_kprobes when building with Clang

   - Fix a deadlock possible when tracing is enabled for SBI ecalls

   - Fix the definition of the Zk standard RISC-V ISA extension bundle,
     which was missing the Zknh extension

   - A few other miscellaneous non-functional cleanups, removing unused
     macros, fixing an out-of-date path in code comments, resolving a
     compile-time warning for a type mismatch in a pr_crit(), and
     removing an unnecessary header file inclusion"
