gpr_get() return the entire pt_regs (include sr) to userspace, if we
don't restore the C bit in gpr_set, it may break the ALU result in
that context. So the C flag bit is part of gpr context, that's why
riscv totally remove the C bit in the ISA. That makes sr reg clear
from userspace to supervisor privilege.

History
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
