Merge tag 'riscv-for-linus-v7.0-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/riscv/linux
Pull RISC-V updates from Paul Walmsley:
"Before v7.0 is released, fix a few issues with the CFI patchset,
merged earlier in v7.0-rc, that primarily affect interfaces to
non-kernel code:
- Improve the prctl() interface for per-task indirect branch landing
pad control to expand abbreviations and to resemble the speculation
control prctl() interface
- Expand the "LP" and "SS" abbreviations in the ptrace uapi header
file to "branch landing pad" and "shadow stack", to improve
readability
- Fix a typo in a CFI-related macro name in the ptrace uapi header
file
- Ensure that the indirect branch tracking state and shadow stack
state are unlocked immediately after an exec() on the new task so
that libc subsequently can control it
- While working in this area, clean up the kernel-internal,
cross-architecture prctl() function names by expanding the
abbreviations mentioned above"
