This patch set contains a lot (at least, for me) of improvements to the
RISC-V kernel port:
* The removal of some cacheinfo values that were bogus.
* On systems with F but without D the kernel will not show the F
extension to userspace, as it isn't actually supported.
* Support for futexes.
* Removal of some unused code.
* Cleanup of some menuconfig entries.
* Support for systems without a floating-point unit, and for building
kernels that will never use the floating-point unit.
* More fixes to the RV32I port, which regressed again. It's really time
to get this into a regression test somewhere so I stop breaking it.
Thanks to Zong for resurrecting it again!
* Various fixes that resulted from a year old review of our original
patch set that I finally got around to.
* Various improvements to SMP support, largely based around having
switched to logical hart numbering, as well as some interrupt
improvements. This one is in the same patch set as above, thanks to
Atish for sheparding everything though as my patch set was a bit of a
mess.
I'm pretty sure this is our largest patch set since the original kernel
contribution, and it's certainly the one with the most contributors.
While I don't have anything else I know I'm going to submit for the
merge window, I would be somewhat surprised if I didn't screw anything
up.
Thanks for the help, everyone!

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
