Thank you for offering this.If I want to give some comments on Marty's patch,
what should I do?

For Marty's patch, I think there's no need to add specific config item ARCH_HIxxxx
for every chipset. Some existing chipsets depend on ARCH_HISI directly like Hi3519
and Hi3798CV200. If some options like ARM_GIC is removed from ARCH_HISI, this kind
of chipsets will must choose other place to select it. I suggest we should keep selecting
ARM_GIC under ARCH_HISI as Pan's patch do.

The code may be like this:

config ARCH_HISI
 	bool "Hisilicon SoC Support"
-	depends on ARCH_MULTI_V7
+	depends on ARCH_MULTI_V5 || ARCH_MULTI_V6 || ARCH_MULTI_V7
 	select ARM_AMBA
-	select ARM_GIC
+	select ARM_GIC if ARCH_MULTI_V7
+	select ARM_VIC if ARCH_MULTI_V5 || depends on ARCH_MULTI_V6
 	select ARM_TIMER_SP804
 	select POWER_RESET
 	select POWER_RESET_HISI
 	select POWER_SUPPLY

What's your opinion?

Best Regards,
Jiancheng
