So apparently my build bot did actually run against this series?
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-riscv/list/?series=739109

To be quite honest, I am not sure at all how it managed to apply the
series w/ Arnd's pre-reqs. Perhaps it has achieved some from of
sentience. There's a build failure for 32-bit that appeared on the final
patch, but is not really its fault:

The simplest solution may to just be making the erratum depend on 64BIT?

Cheers,
Conor.
