The NoMMU kernel is broken for QEMU virt machine from Linux-5.9-rc6
because clint_time_val is used even before CLINT driver is probed
at following places:
1. rand_initialize() calls get_cycles() which in-turn uses
clint_time_val
2. boot_init_stack_canary() calls get_cycles() which in-turn
uses clint_time_val
The issue#1 (above) is fixed by providing custom random_get_entropy()
for RISC-V NoMMU kernel. For issue#2 (above), we remove dependency of
boot_init_stack_canary() on get_cycles() and this is aligned with the
boot_init_stack_canary() implementations of ARM, ARM64 and MIPS kernel.

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.
