I can confirm that doing

diff --git a/arch/riscv/include/asm/kexec.h b/arch/riscv/include/asm/kexec.h
index 206217b23301..eee260e8ab30 100644

 #endif

on top of 838b3e28488f results in a compilable tree. And when merging
233c1e6c319c into this, it is still building.

I'm not enough into kexec (and riscv) to judge if this is sensible, or
create a useful commit log but the obvious way forward is to apply the
above patch to the riscv tree before it hits Linus' tree.

Best regards
Uwe
