Some minor nits, but I don't think there is any need to respin for them.

Thanks Julian,
in general this patch looks fine to me.
Could I ask you

FWIIW, I think you can fold this into the first patch.
And, although I have no good idea at this moment, I do wonder
if the logic can be simplified - I for one
Hi all,
I am happy to announce the release of kexec-tools 2.0.26.
This is a feature release coinciding with the release of v6.1
of the Linux Kernel.
This release can be downloaded from kernel.org:

Hi all,
I am happy to announce the release of kexec-tools 2.0.26-rc1.
This is an incremental feature pre-release.
So long as no serious problems arise I intend to release kexec-tools 2.0.26
in a weeks time. Testing of 2.0.26-rc1 would be greatly appreciated.
I do not have any outstanding
Hi all,
I am planning to release kexec-tools v2.0.26 in the next two weeks
to roughly coincide with the release of the v6.1 kernel.
I would like to ask interested parties to send any patches they would like
included in v2.0.26 within one week so they can be considered for inclusion
in an rc

Hi Xianting Tian,
Please consider including this a v3 patch-set
to add RISC-V to kexec-tools.
diff --git a/.github/workflows/build.yml b/.github/workflows
Use to checkout@v3 instead of checkout@v2
as the latter uses Node.js 12 actions which are deprecated.
