Thanks for your patch, which is now commit 8abb95250ae6af2d ("can:
sun4i_can: Add support for the Allwinner D1") in linux-can-next/master.

This makes this question pop up when configuring a kernel for any RISC-V
platform, not just for Allwinner RISC-V platforms.

In comparison, drivers/clk/sunxi-ng/Kconfig does have some

    depends on MACH_SUN<foo>I || RISCV || COMPILE_TEST

but these are gated by ARCH_SUNXI at the top of the file.

I'm not sure what's the best way to fix this:
  - Replace RISCV by ARCH_SUNXI?
    This would expose it on more ARM sun<foo>i platforms, making the
    MACH_SUN4I || MACH_SUN7I superfluous?
  - Replace RISCV by RISCV && ARCH_SUNXI?

Thanks for your comments!
