I'm not its maintainer so sorta moot what I say, but having drivers in arch/riscv makes little sense to me.. Putting stuff in drivers/cache does sound like a good idea since the binding is going there too. The SiFive ccache driver is in drivers/soc and it was suggested to me this week that there's likely going to be a second SiFive cache driver at some point in the near future. Plus Microchip are going to have to add cache management stuff to the existing SiFive ccache driver. Having them be their own thing makes sense in my mind - especially since they're not tied to SoCs sold by Andes or SiFive. I had a quick, and I mean *quick* look through other soc drivers to see if there were any other cache controller drivers but nothing stood out to me. Maybe someone else has more of a clue there. Ditto for misc, had a look but nothing seemed obvious. If we do do drivers/cache & move the SiFive stuff there too, someone needs to look after it. I guess I can if noone else feels strongly since I seem to be the Responsible Adult for the SiFive ones already?
