Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 06/15] RISC-V: Take text_mutex in ftrace_init_nop()

From: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit 66d18dbda8469a944dfec6c49d26d5946efba218 ]

Without this we get lockdep failures.  They're spurious failures as SMP isn't
up when ftrace_init_nop() is called.  As far as I can tell the easiest fix is
to just take the lock, which also seems like the safest fix.
