Without this change arch/riscv/kernel/elf_kexec.c fails to compile once
commit 233c1e6c319c ("kexec_file: drop weak attribute from
arch_kexec_apply_relocations[_add]") is also contained in the tree.
This currently happens in next-20220527.

Prepare the RISC-V similar to the s390 adaption done in 233c1e6c319c.
This is safe to do on top of the riscv change even without the change to
arch_kexec_apply_relocations.

LGTM, you could send a fixup patch to riscv, thanks.

I'm not enough into kexec (and riscv) to judge if this is

create a useful commit log but the obvious way forward is to apply the
above patch to the riscv tree before it hits Linus' tree.
Ok, here comes a patch with a generic commit log.

@riscv people: If you prefer, squash it into 838b3e28488f.
Sorry, just saw this after I sent my version of the fix.  They're the same,
but do you mind sending a full-on patch so I can merge it?
Sorry, I don't understand your request. I found
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20220530180408.16239-1-palmer@rivosinc.com/ (local)

but I don't know what a full-on patch is and what stops you merging my
patch. 

Is it that it's in reply to a patch series and b4 fails to fetch the
right patch and you ask to send it in a new thread?

Best regards
Uwe
