Pull RISC-V updates from Paul Walmsley:
"New features:
- SECCOMP support
- nommu support
- SBI-less system support
- M-Mode support
- TLB flush optimizations
Other improvements:
- Pass the complete RISC-V ISA string supported by the CPU cores to
userspace, rather than redacting parts of it in the kernel
- Add platform DMA IP block data to the HiFive Unleashed board DT
file
- Add Makefile support for BZ2, LZ4, LZMA, LZO kernel image
compression formats, in line with other architectures
Cleanups:
- Remove unnecessary PTE_PARENT_SIZE macro
- Standardize include guard naming across arch/riscv"
* tag 'riscv/for-v5.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/riscv/linux: (22 commits)

RISC-V: Add multiple compression image format.
riscv: clean up the macro format in each header file
riscv: Use PMD_SIZE to replace PTE_PARENT_SIZE
riscv: abstract out CSR names for supervisor vs machine mode
riscv: separate MMIO functions into their own header file

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
