Merge tag 'riscv/for-v5.3-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/riscv/linux
Pull RISC-V updates from Paul Walmsley: "A few minor RISC-V updates for v5.3-rc4: - Remove __udivdi3() from the 32-bit Linux port, converting the only upstream user to use do_div(), per Linux policy - Convert the RISC-V standard clocksource away from per-cpu data structures, since only one is used by Linux, even on a multi-CPU system - A set of DT binding updates that remove an obsolete text binding in favor of a YAML binding, fix a bogus compatible string in the schema (thus fixing a "make dtbs_check" warning), and clarifies the future values expected in one of the RISC-V CPU properties" * tag 'riscv/for-v5.3-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/riscv/linux: dt-bindings: riscv: fix the schema compatible string for the HiFive Unleashed board dt-bindings: riscv: remove obsolete cpus.txt RISC-V: Remove udivdi3 riscv: delay: use do_div() instead of __udivdi3() dt-bindings: Update the riscv,isa string description RISC-V: Remove per cpu clocksource

+ This document uses some terminology common to the RISC-V community
+ that is not widely used, the definitions of which are listed here:
+
+ hart: A hardware execution context, which contains all the state
+ mandated by the RISC-V ISA: a PC and some registers. This
+ terminology is designed to disambiguate software's view of execution
+ contexts from any particular microarchitectural implementation
+ strategy. For example, an Intel laptop containing one socket with
+ two cores, each of which has two hyperthreads, could be described as
+ having four harts.
