Thanks, here's what I'm planning to queue for v5.4-rc1. Please let me

Subject: [PATCH] arch/riscv: disable excess harts before picking main boot hart

Harts with id greater than or equal to CONFIG_NR_CPUS need to be
disabled. But the kernel can pick any hart as the main hart. So,
before picking the main hart, the kernel must disable harts with ids
greater than or equal to CONFIG_NR_CPUS.
