Nitpick time! This opening paragraph is all a little oddly worded IMO.
How about:

Currently, selecting which CMOs to use on a given platform is done using
and ALTERNATIVE_X() macro. This was manageable when there were just two
CMO implementations, but now that there are more and more platforms coming
needing custom CMOs, the use of the ALTERNATIVE_X() macro is unmanageable.

Did you notice a performance decrease or are you speculating?
Perhaps Icenowy - who I know benched their implmentation of a new CMO
macro for THEAD stuff can do so again for this.

Think you've left out some words here chief!
Perhaps s/and for platforms who/. For platforms that/ & on the line
after, s/operation/direction/ ?

I'm not going to provide a tested-by for the THEAD stuff, as I have no
metrics - but I booted my usual NFS and did some tyre kicking. Seemed
grand.

These functions are only present if CONFIG_ERRATA_THEAD_CMO is set,
so this cannot be an IS_ENABLED() as things stand.

As Arnd suggested, I'd rather see a `static const struct
riscv_cache_ops` type deal too, so you can just call register()
directly.

Drop the "function pointers" from everything here IMO.

Will be NULL? Or must be NULL?
Assuming you keep it, as I see Arnd is questioning it, I think a better
description is needed for this one. And a rename of the function name,
the one you have right now is oddly juxtaposed and a bit confusing.
I don't really have something much better to suggest, so I am gonna use
cmo_omnibus here...

@cmo_omnibus: For platforms whose CMO capabilities do not align with the
              standard cache management operations. If set, the specific
	      ops must be left unset.

Circling back ages later, cmo_universal()?

Can these ever be used if DMA_NONCOHERENT is not set? I think
riscv/mm/Makefile gates their usage on the symbol, no?

These exports should be _GPL, no? The file is GPLed. Ditto the others.

Barring the function name, which I really don't like - it really is
confusingly named. Something like cmo_universal() would get it's point
across a bit better I think.

Can we just chop off the extra step here? Behaviourally this is going to
be no different whether someone sets the universal op and the individual
ones anyway.

_GPL again I think!

I'm happy with this approach, modulo the minor bits I've pointed out.
I do really like that it takes us away from messing with an asm
alternative every time someone wants to do this stuff differently or for
a new platform.

I would like Heiko to have a look at what you've done here, but ye looks
promising IMO.

Thanks,
Conor.
