- Fix CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y boots by building Image files from vmlinux,
rather than vmlinux.unstripped, now that the .modinfo section is
included in vmlinux.unstripped.
- Prevent branch predictor poisoning microarchitectural attacks that
use the syscall index as a vector by using array_index_nospec() to
clamp the index after the bounds check (as x86 and ARM64 already
do).
- Fix a crash in test_kprobes when building with Clang.
- Fix a deadlock possible when tracing is enabled for SBI ecalls.
- Fix the definition of the Zk standard RISC-V ISA extension bundle,
which was missing the Zknh extension.
- A few other miscellaneous non-functional cleanups, removing unused
macros, fixing an out-of-date path in code comments, resolving a
compile-time warning for a type mismatch in a pr_crit(), and removing
an unnecessary header file inclusion.

Pull RISC-V fixes from Paul Walmsley:
"Notable changes include a fix to close one common microarchitectural
attack vector for out-of-order cores. Another patch exposed an
omission in my boot test coverage, which is currently missing
relocatable kernels. Otherwise, the fixes seem to be settling down for
us.
