It looks like the CK8xx CPUs are basically compatible, so it would
be nice to have a way to configure a kernel that can run on all
of them, picking a safe default for options that depend on a
particular CPU. E.g. when only CK860 supports SMP, you might
start out by making SMP "depend on !(CPU_CK807 || CPU_CK810)",
as an alternative to implementing a way for an SMP-enabled kernel
to run on non-SMP CPUs (arm has that, but it's probably too complex
for your needs).

Similarly, you can set L1_CACHE_BYTES to the largest possible
size, and make things like CPU_TLB_SIZE dynamically detected.

Just send a patch to change those dependencies, there is no reason
not to apply those. Generally speaking, the kernel should not contain
workarounds for particular (mis-)features of the kernel, when you can
just change those.

The asm-generic version of atomic.h is a bit inefficient,
you might want to provide an optimized version for your
architecture.

You should not need asm/auxvec.h or uapi/asm/auxvec.h

providing your own bug.h might be helpful too.
Have a look

asm-generic/cputime.h no loinger exists

> +generic-y += kvm_para.h

Do you support KVM?

Deprecated and should not be needed
