SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/2] riscv: Fix crash during early errata patching

I'd rather fix __phys_addr_symbol so that we can use __pa_symbol and
then take advantage of the address range check. Instead of using _end in
phys_addr_symbol, we have access to the size of the kernel mapping, so
we could do something like that:

diff --git a/arch/riscv/mm/physaddr.c b/arch/riscv/mm/physaddr.c
index f981b1f95fa0..150691aef058 100644
--- a/arch/riscv/mm/physaddr.c
+++ b/arch/riscv/mm/physaddr.c

        unsigned long kernel_start = kernel_map.virt_addr;
-       unsigned long kernel_end = (unsigned long)_end;
+       unsigned long kernel_end = kernel_map.virt_addr + kernel_map.size;

        /*

Thanks,
