Since this is travis-ci changes, can we take this for v2018.09? I've verified that it works well for current riscv build on travis-ci.org.
Seeing as things are still working before this change I would like
to see an ack
from the custodian, thanks!

Hi Bin
I think lt is a positive way to use kernel.org pre-built toolchain for code coverage. And very agree with that.
But there is a problem, it maybe encounter in the future. If I or someone try to add a private csr which the public toolchain may not recognize it.
I assume what you said "private" csr means "vendor-specific" csr that is not defined by the risc-v ISA?
How shall it be overcomed ? Do you have any ideas ?
I believe this shall be implemented properly by the toolchain itself. Or we hardcode the instruction for such "private" csr if there is no good solution from the toolchain side. Having a custom toolchain seems not a good idea.
