Looks good to me. Are you planning to submit the RISC-V port upstream
any time soon? If so, just keep the patch in your tree and add my

Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

However, I did see a lot of similar bugs now that you point me to it:

$ grep -r \\\<CONFIG obj-tmp/usr/include/
obj-tmp/usr/include/asm-generic/fcntl.h:#ifndef CONFIG_64BIT
obj-tmp/usr/include/asm-generic/mman-common.h:#ifdef CONFIG_MMAP_ALLOW_UNINITIALIZED
obj-tmp/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h:#ifdef CONFIG_MMU
obj-tmp/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h:#endif /* CONFIG_MMU */
obj-tmp/usr/include/linux/atmdev.h:#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
obj-tmp/usr/include/linux/elfcore.h:#ifdef CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_FDPIC
obj-tmp/usr/include/linux/eventpoll.h:#ifdef CONFIG_PM_SLEEP
obj-tmp/usr/include/linux/fb.h:#ifdef CONFIG_FB_BACKLIGHT
obj-tmp/usr/include/linux/flat.h:#ifdef CONFIG_BINFMT_SHARED_FLAT
obj-tmp/usr/include/linux/hw_breakpoint.h:#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_MIXED_BREAKPOINTS_REGS
obj-tmp/usr/include/linux/pktcdvd.h:#if defined(CONFIG_CDROM_PKTCDVD_WCACHE)
obj-tmp/usr/include/linux/raw.h:#define MAX_RAW_MINORS CONFIG_MAX_RAW_DEVS
obj-tmp/usr/include/asm/ptrace.h:#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_ENDIAN_BE8

These all have the same problem, and we should fix them, as well as
(probably) adding an automated check to scripts/headers_install.sh.
