If we detect a mismatch then should we disable the CMO extension? The
current spec says "size of a cache block shall be uniform throughout the
system", even though that may be relaxed in later extensions. I also now
recall you suggested that when DT parsing ends up with a zero block size
we should disable the CMO extension. riscv_init_cbom_blocksize() still
doesn't handle zeros in the DT correctly, even with this patch, though.
For example, if the first harts parsed are zero, but the latter harts
all match, we won't even get the mismatch warning.

But, for now, my preference would be to merge this patch, as it's an
improvement on its own. I can try to write another patch which handles
zeros and mismatches by disabling the feature. What do you think?

Thanks,
drew
