I don't really understand the changes that you are making to this
function, so that is tries really hard to call
riscv_noncoherent_supported(). Why do we need to always call the function
in the erratum's probe function, if the erratum is not detected, given
that riscv_noncoherent_supported() is called immediately after
apply_boot_alternatives() in setup_arch()?

I think it would "read better" if you renamed this variable to
"have_cmo".

As a nit, could you put a newline before the call to
riscv_noncoherent_supported()?

The other places that we do a WARN() because of screwed up devicetrees
for CMO things, we do a WARN_TAINT(CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC). Should we do the
same here too?
