Yes. keyutils was binNMUed on riscv64 and hence is not coinstallable
with anything else.

The way to resolve this is to binNMU everything else to match the +b1 of
riscv64. We're aware riscv64 generally is not version-synced with other
architectures. The release team has decided to not solve this problem
yet as it would cause very many binNMUs. When riscv64 enters testing, it
will be synced, but not now.
I also note that having crossbuild-essential-riscv64 is another missing
prerequisite for cross building. See #1022540
Thus I request more patience here. Sorry for the inconvenience.
