RISC-V experimental branch updated (tag: riscv-experimental-for-v6.19-2025110501)

[Paul Walmsley]

Folks,

As I've mentioned to several people on the list, I'd like to try to find a 
way to encourage early testing of patch series targeted for the next merge 
window that are under local review and testing here, but which are not yet 
ready to be pushed to the riscv/for-next branch.  As a community, we're 
missing quite a bit of public testing, especially on hardware or 
emulators.

Towards that end, I've started pushing up experimental branches to the 
pjw/riscv.git tree representing various patch series.  I've also merged 
many of those together in the experimental/merged branch.  Like all of 
these experimental branches, this 'merged' branch is unstable and will 
change often, and without warning:

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pjw/riscv.git/log/?h=experimental/merged

To create collective reference points, I'm also creating tags from this 
experimental/merged branch.  The tags should not change once pushed.  
There's an initial one here:

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pjw/riscv.git/tag/?h=riscv-experimental-for-v6.19-2025110501

For those of you that have automated test systems, it'd be appreciated if 
you could kick off test jobs using these tags, and to post the test 
results on the list, along with a short description of what was tested, 
and on what platforms.  That will help us build confidence in these patch 
series before we add them to for-next.

Of course, testing for-next is important also.  The intention here is 
simply to increase our collective confidence level in what we're planning 
to push to riscv/for-next in the future.

I expect there may be a few bugs in this process, so please bear with us.  
Let's see if this helps.
