New persistent runtime warning when booting riscv32/64 images:
You sure this is new? I seem to be able to reproduce for QEMU (which I don't usually test) in several versions of 6.1. Don't see it in (my) hardware though, as the particular platform doesn't end up calling the offending function. Out of curiosity, what's your QEMU invocation?
Anyways, looks like a partial backport is the cause. How's it look with:
