Build details, https://qa-reports.linaro.org/lkft/linux-stable-rc-linux-5.10.y/build/v5.10....
binutils 2.35 by the looks of things, I **think** that zifencei didn't land until 2.36. zicsr and zifence get added via cc-option-yn, which, IIRC, doesn't do anything with the linker. I dunno if anyone in RISC-V land cares this much about "odd" configurations back in 5.10, but while a fix is outstanding, you could use a newer binutils?
