That commit isn't in Linus' tree (at least, as far as I see it).  I have
6184358da000 ("riscv: Fixup static_obj() fail"), so I'm going to fix that -- in
fact, I'm going to essentially just replace most of this rationale with what I
wrote up in my revert as this is all a bit too long for a commit message.

I was kind of worried the initdata move was a bit too risky, but after reading
the users of __init_{begin,end} I think it's safe.  Here's what I ended up with
on fixes.

Thanks!

    riscv: Fixup bootup failure with HARDENED_USERCOPY
    
    6184358da000 ("riscv: Fixup static_obj() fail") attempted to elide a lockdep
    failure by rearranging our kernel image to place all initdata within [_stext,
    _end], thus triggering lockdep to treat these as static objects.  These objects
    are released and eventually reallocated, causing check_kernel_text_object() to
    trigger a BUG().
    
    This backs out the change to make [_stext, _end] all-encompassing, instead just
    moving initdata.  This results in initdata being outside of [__init_begin,
    __init_end], which means initdata can't be freed.
