Thanks for sending the patch.

As Alexandre has already sent out a patch to solve this problem first,
(https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/20220128134713.2322800-1-alexandre.ghiti@canonical.com/)
we'd go with this patch and we welcome your future patches to improve RISC-V U-Boot.

Best regards,
Leo
