I have to admit to being a little confused here, if Ztso is not ratified
why do we need to protect ourselves from it?

Also, since this is not marked as a fix, why would we not just apply the
patchset from Palmer that looks like a more complete version of this
patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20220902034352.8825-1-palmer@rivosinc.com/

Maybe you could offer an R-b or some comments on that patch instead?

IMO that's the better way to go, Ztso is frozen so we can expect 
software to start using it.  Might as well let it run if the machine is 
going to be TSO anyway (and IIRC some of the T-Head stuff either is or 
can be TSO, so we'll need to detection soon anyway).

I was also planning on re-spinning the QEMU stuff so we can test it, but 
given how simple the Linux patch is I think it's fine to just go ahead 
and take it.

Happy to hear any comments, though.

Sure I didn't know about that patch and my idea was just to get the ball 
rolling so tooling at least can start having tso bits as last time 
around that was the blocker to getting stuff in binutils and gcc etc.

Ye nw, sure I completely forgot what the order was between frozen,
public review & ratification was ;)
