What changed between this version and the previous one? You need to
include changelogs under the --- for this purpose.

Add punit and sunil in the loop.

Thanks for looping us in.

It will be helpful to add more context to the commit log - especially
for something that is being exposed in a user visible
interface. Something like below -

    The RISC-V architecture makes a real time counter CSR (via RDTIME
    instruction) available for applications in U-mode but there is no
    architected mechanism for an application to discover the frequency
    the counter is running at. Some applications (e.g., DPDK) use the
    time counter for basic performance analysis as well as fine grained
    time-keeping.

    Add support to the hwprobe system call to export the timer counter
    frequency to code running in U-mode.

With the commit log updated,

Acked-by: Punit Agrawal <punit.agrawal@bytedance.com>

Thanks
