I had a difficult time getting this patch to apply as it does not appear
to be generated against the latest mainline tree, since the diff does
account for at least commit 772d7891e8b3 ("riscv: vdso: fix and clean-up
Makefile"), 08734e0581a5 ("riscv: Use vendor name for K210 SoC
support"), and 44c922572952 ("RISC-V: enable XIP") in it.
I was able to get it to apply but then I ran into the following error:
make[5]: *** No rule to make target 'arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso-syms.o', needed by 'arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/built-in.a'.
The following diff works for me and it appears to build and boot in QEMU
without any issues. However, the errors on 5.10 still persist, I've commented
on GitHub for now.
Cheers,
Nathan
