Thx for doing this. I think the series mixes a few things not related to ZOL removal - the changelog for removal of -Os specific code seems incorrect etc.
Let me repost with slight more cleanups.

Hi Vineet and all,

This patch series continues to prepare arch/arc for the upcoming ARCv3
support. ARCv3 does not support zero-overhead-loop (ZOL). So this patch
series provides a set of changes that make ZOL support optional.

The patch series is based on top of Linux 5.17-rc5. It has been tested
with enabled CONFIG_ARC_LACKS_ZOL option on ARCv2 HSDK hardware as well
as on nSIM simulator for ARCv2.

I fixed typos, updated Vineet's email address, and slightly modified
several commit messages. Otherwise this patch series is the first chunk
of ARCv3 bring-up changes by Vineet, available at Synopsys github: see
github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/linux

Regards,
Sergey
