Merge tag 'riscv-for-linus-5.16-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/riscv/linux

Pull RISC-V Fixes for 5.16-rc4

- .rodata is no longer linkd into PT_DYNAMIC.

It was not supposed to be there in the first place and resulted in
invalid (but unused) entries. This manifests as at least warnings in
llvm-readelf

- A fix for runtime constants with all-0 upper 32-bits. This should
only manifest on MMU=n kernels

- A fix for context save/restore on systems using the T-Head vector
extensions

- A fix for a conflicting "+r"/"r" register constraint in the VDSO
getrandom syscall wrapper, which is undefined behavior in clang

- A fix for a missing register clobber in the RVV raid6 implementation.

This manifests as a NULL pointer reference on some compilers, but
could trigger in other ways

- Misaligned accesses from userspace at faulting addresses are now
handled correctly

- A fix for an incorrect optimization that allowed access_ok() to mark
invalid addresses as accessible, which can result in userspace
triggering BUG()s

- A few fixes for build warnings, and an update to Drew's email address

raid6: riscv: Fix NULL pointer dereference caused by a missing clobber

When running the raid6 user-space test program on RISC-V QEMU, there's a
segmentation fault which seems caused by accessing a NULL pointer,
which is the pointer variable p/q in raid6_rvv*_gen/xor_syndrome_real(),
p/q should have been equal to dptr[x], but when I use GDB command to
see its value, which was 0x10 like below:

"
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x0000000000011062 in raid6_rvv2_xor_syndrome_real (disks=<optimized out>, start=0, stop=<optimized out>, bytes=4096, ptrs=<optimized out>) at rvv.c:386
(gdb) p p
$1 = (u8 *) 0x10 <error: Cannot access memory at address 0x10>
"

The issue was found to be related with:
1) Compile optimization
There's no segmentation fault if compiling the raid6test program with
the optimization flag -O0.
2) The RISC-V vector command vsetvli
If not used t0 as the first parameter in vsetvli, there's no
segmentation fault either.

This patch selects the 2nd solution to fix the issue.

[Palmer: The actual issue here is a missing clobber in the vsetvli code.
It's a little tricky: we've already probed for VLENB so we don't need to
look at the output register, we just need to have an X register in the
instruction as that's the form required to actually set VL. Thus we
clobber a register, and without describing that we end up breaking
compilers.]
