I'm not sure, but I wasn't quite sure where to have that discussion. I
figured that the boards exist so there's no reason to shoot this down,
given that it's just the vendor DT list. At a bare minimum there's out
of tree support for this, so having the DT strings defined seems sane as
that's a defacto interface with bootloaders.
Maybe this is more of a question for Drew: I think we were all OK
working through the issues with the first-run chip when there was going
to be a lot of them, but with such a small number produced I'm not sure
if there's going to be enough interested to take on all that effort.
I'm not quite sure where we stand on support for this: at some point
there were some ideas floating around as to a way to support it without
major software changes (allocating into the non-caching regions). If
that pans out then I'm fine handling this, at least from the RISC-V
side, but if we're going to have to go through all the ISA/SBI stuff
then it's probably not worth it. Also not sure if there are a bunch of
starfive-specific drivers that would be needed to make this boot, in
which case it's probably best to wait for whatever comes next.
