Welp, I have a fixed backport for it and pushed it out for LKP [0].
Just quickly checked it w/ binutils 2.36 & 2.38 locally, which both
worked fine. I doubt anyone really cares though, 4.19 is pretty long in
the tooth RISC-V hw wise. Not the biggest fan of what I did, but I
didn't want to send backports for some other infra changes that
6df2a016c0c8 depends on.

I'll send it to you once LKP gives it the all clear.

Thanks,
Conor.
