Yeah, I noticed traces stopped working with EFI because it was using the
weak version of the function instead of the riscv non-weak version.
Since I'm 99% sure it used to work, then I need to find time to try and
figure out if it's something that changed in k-u-t that is now confusing
the toolchain or a toolchain regression. (It's on the TODO, but there's
lots of stuff on the TODO...)

Yes, I suppose that would be the cleanest thing to do. And then in
lib/$ARCH/asm/stack.h we should have

#ifdef CONFIG_RELOC
#define HAVE_ARCH_BASE_ADDRESS
#endif

when the arch wants to use the implementation here (which is probably
would).
