Stupid question maybe, but I assume you mixed the driver addition and
the changes to arch/riscv for the sake of easily creating the RFC?

I won't make any comments on the ALTERNATIVES usage & leave that to the
likes of Heiko rather than make a fool of myself! But to my untrained
eye, having to use #defines looks like you've strayed pretty far from
the light.. My understanding was that the whole point was to avoid
having any ifdef-ery!

Hmm, does this belong there? It certainly makes the comment look a
little odd! /If/ it goes into this file, I think it should be in a
separate section "heading" - but could it not be put into rzf_sbi.h?

Given your comment in the commit message, should this also be carrying a
copyright from Andestech?

I'll (mostly) keep my nose out of style for soc/renesas, but this /* ---
style looks unusual!

There's a real mix of function name prefixes in here, sbi_ aside is
there a reason you didn't just stick to ax45mp_foo()? Apologies if
I missed something that should've been obvious

Won't this produce complaints from your if you compile with CONFIG_SMP
set?
