Description : In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RISC-V: fix taking the text_mutex twice during sifive errata patching
Chris pointed out that some bonehead, *cough* me *cough*, added two
mutex_locks() to the SiFive errata patching. The second was meant to
have been a mutex_unlock().
This results in errors such as
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000030
