This file is expected to be included multiple times in the same file in

a global include guard we end up missing __NR_riscv_flush_icache in the
syscall table, which results in icache flushes that escape the vDSO call
to not actually do anything.
The fix is to move to per-#define include guards, which allows the
system call tables to actually be populated. Thanks to Macrus Comstedt
for finding and fixing the bug!
I also went ahead and fixed the SPDX header to use a //-style comment,
which I've been told is the canonical way to do it.

on top of linux-next after reverting the version of the patch there.
I also tried to run the resulting image (defconfig) with qemu (built
from https://github.com/riscv/riscv-qemu.git), but that still doesn't
work. I assume there are still some patches missing ?
Do you have the PLIC patches? They'll be necessary to make this all work, and
there's a v4 out now that when combined with for-next should get you to
userspace.

Also, what is your methodology? I follow
https://wiki.qemu.org/Documentation/Platforms/RISCV
and could could natively compile and run hello world with an earlier version of
Christoph's patch set, which is really only cosmetically different than the v4.
I use qemu's master branch as well, which when I tried was exactly 3.0.0-rc3.
