Hi Tiezhu,

I think it makes sense to include the selftests changes in the
series implementing CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK for loongarch [1].

With respect to riscv part of this, I suggest you drop it unless you
have the means to run the tests. Landing without any testing is silly.

Also I think you may drop the RFC tag. AFAIU you're trying to bring
loongarch to parity with mainstream arch-es, and that shouldn't be
controversial.

Thanks.
