Here is the collection of patches I have applied to my 'asm-generic' tree on top of the 'metag' removal. This does not include any of the device drivers, I'll send those separately to a someone different list of people. The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/ Following up from the state described there, I ended up removing the mn10300, tile, blackfin and cris architectures directly, rather than waiting, after consulting with the respective maintainers. However, the unicore32 architecture is no longer part of the removal, after its maintainer Xuetao Guan said that the port is still actively being used and that he intends to keep working on it, and that he will try to provide updated toolchain sources. In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point.
