[PATCH v10 08/14] xen/riscv: add definition of __read_mostly
Posted by Oleksii Kurochko 6 months, 1 week ago
The definition of __read_mostly should be removed in:
https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/f25eb5c9-7c14-6e23-8535-2c66772b333e@suse.com/

The patch introduces it in arch-specific header to not
block enabling of full Xen build for RISC-V.

- [PATCH] move __read_mostly to xen/cache.h  [2]

Right now, the patch series doesn't have a direct dependency on [2] and it
provides __read_mostly in the patch:
    [PATCH v3 26/34] xen/riscv: add definition of __read_mostly
However, it will be dropped as soon as [2] is merged or at least when the
final version of the patch [2] is provided.

Considering that there is still no still final decision regarding patch [2] my suggestion
is to merge RISC-V specific patch and just drop the changes in patch [2].
