Yes, this patch results in a bad configuration file.

CONFIG_ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS_MIN=18
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS=y
CONFIG_ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS=0

CONFIG_ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS=0 is outside the valid range, causing make to ask
for a valid number. Since none exists, one is stuck with something like:

Number of bits to use for ASLR of mmap base address (ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS) [0] (NEW) 1
Number of bits to use for ASLR of mmap base address (ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS) [0] (NEW) 2
Number of bits to use for ASLR of mmap base address (ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS) [0] (NEW) 3
Number of bits to use for ASLR of mmap base address (ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS) [0] (NEW) 4
Number of bits to use for ASLR of mmap base address (ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS) [0] (NEW) 5
Number of bits to use for ASLR of mmap base address (ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS) [0] (NEW) 6
Number of bits to use for ASLR of mmap base address (ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS) [0] (NEW) 7
Number of bits to use for ASLR of mmap base address (ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS) [0] (NEW) 8
Number of bits to use for ASLR of mmap base address (ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS) [0] (NEW) 19
Number of bits to use for ASLR of mmap base address (ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS) [0] (NEW) 18

when trying to compile riscv images. Plus, of course, all automatic builders
bail out as result.
