Subject: [PATCH v3 0/8] riscv: resolve most warnings from sparse

Resolve most warnings from the 'sparse' static analysis tool for the
arch/riscv codebase.  This makes life easier for us as maintainers,
and makes it easier for developers to use static analysis tools on
their own changes.

This third version drops the patch that adds one of the
__riscv_cmodel* preprocessor definitions, and uses __visible for C
functions called only by assembly code - both based on some guidance
from Luc Van Oostenryck.

This patch series incorporates some changes based on feedback from
Christoph Hellwig <hch@....de> and Luc Van Oostenryck
<luc.vanoostenryck@...il.com>.

Applies on the current riscv fixes branch that is based on v5.4-rc3.

- Paul
