Actually, I would like to take this back for patch 2.
Per the discussion on the other thread about XIP [1], I don't think
that KVM should be selecting alternatives like this.
Would you mind if I picked up these patches & submitted them as a v2,
alongside a patch trying to make sure that we do not clip the wings of
of XIP kernels by selecting RISCV_ALTERNATIVE?

Cheers,
Conor.
