riscv patches for 6.16-rc1

* Implement atomic patching support for ftrace which finally allows to
get rid of stop_machine().
* Support for kexec_file_load() syscall
* Improve module loading time by changing the algorithm that counts the
number of plt/got entries in a module.
* Zicbop is now used in the kernel to prefetch instructions

[Palmer: There's been two rounds of surgery on this one, so as a result
it's a bit different than the PR.]

selftests: ublk: kublk: tie sqe allocation to io instead of queue

We currently have a helper ublk_queue_alloc_sqes which the ublk targets
use to allocate SQEs for their own operations. However, as we move
towards decoupled ublk_queues and ublk server threads, this helper does
not make sense anymore. SQEs are allocated from rings, and we will have
one ring per thread to avoid locking. Change the SQE allocation helper
to ublk_io_alloc_sqes. Currently this still allocates SQEs from the io's
queue's ring, but when we fully decouple threads and queues, it will
allocate from the io's thread's ring instead.

selftests: ublk: kublk: plumb q_id in io_uring user_data

Currently, when we process CQEs, we know which ublk_queue we are working
on because we know which ring we are working on, and ublk_queues and
rings are in 1:1 correspondence. However, as we decouple ublk_queues
from ublk server threads, ublk_queues and rings will no longer be in 1:1
correspondence - each ublk server thread will have a ring, and each
thread may issue commands against more than one ublk_queue. So in order
to know which ublk_queue a CQE refers to, plumb that information in the
associated SQE's user_data.

spi: axi-spi-engine: offload instruction optimization

Merge series from David Lechner <dlechner@baylibre.com>:

In order to achieve a 4 MSPS rate on a 16-bit ADC with a 80 MHz SCLK
using the SPI offload feature of the AXI SPI Engine, we need to shave
off some time that is spent executing unnecessary instructions. There
are a few one-time setup instructions that can be moved so that they
execute only once when the SPI offload trigger is enabled rather than
repeating each time the offload is triggered. Additionally, a recent
change to the IP block allows dropping the SYNC instruction completely.
With these changes, we are left with only the 3 instructions that are
needed to to assert CS, transfer the data, and deassert CS. This makes
3 + 16 * 12.5 ns = 237.5 ns < 250 ns which is comfortably within the
available time period.
