    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    riscv: Use READ_ONCE_NOCHECK in imprecise unwinding stack mode

    When CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is unset, the stack unwinding function
    walk_stackframe randomly reads the stack and then, when KASAN is enabled,
    it can lead to the following backtrace:

    Fix that by using READ_ONCE_NOCHECK when reading the stack in imprecise
    mode.
