This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 6.1.47 release. There are 194 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please let me know.
Fails to build for me with gcc-11/binutils 2.37 on RISC-V. The problematic patch is "riscv: Handle zicsr/zifencei issue between gcc and binutils". Can you drop that please, probably from all of your branches. It certainly affects 6.4 too & I don't personally test anything older than 6.1.
If I recall correctly, I had to be careful with combining gcc versions and binutils versions. gcc 11.4.0 combined with binutils 2.40 works fine for me. Note that this doesn't just affect riscv. loongarch and ppc are quite notorious for that as well.
