Merge patch series "riscv: Introduce compat-mode helpers & improve arch_get_mmap_end()"
Leonardo Bras <leobras@redhat.com> says:

I just saw the opportunity of optimizing the helper is_compat_task() by
introducing a compile-time test, and it made possible to remove some
 #ifdef's without any loss of performance.

I also saw the possibility of removing the direct check of task flags from
general code, and concentrated it in asm/compat.h by creating a few more
helpers, which in the end helped optimize code.

arch_get_mmap_end() just got a simple improvement and some extra docs.

* b4-shazam-merge:
  riscv: Introduce set_compat_task() in asm/compat.h
  riscv: Introduce is_compat_thread() into compat.h
  riscv: add compile-time test into is_compat_task()
  riscv: Replace direct thread flag check with is_compat_task()
  riscv: Improve arch_get_mmap_end() macro

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
