Thank you Palmer, Conor.
I saw patch 5,6 already merged to Palmer's riscv-crash branch,
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/palmer/linux.git/log/?h=r...
Looking forward to be merged to 6.1(?). thanks.
From reading this, it looks like another revision (for the remaining
patches) might be a good idea so that the docs can undergo further
review?
Thanks
Conor.
