I have dropped it in v2 RISC-V patchseries.

I have dropped skeleton.dtsi in the v2 RISC-V patchseries.

I have even submitted patches for MIPS, please review.

I know about this problem. I have even made a patch for linux kernel for MIPS:

  [PATCH v3 2/2] MIPS: use generic GCC library routines from lib/
  https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg1599191.html

During this MIPS patch discussion it has become evident that Kconfig GENERIC_
prefix has to be changed to GENERIC_LIB_.

This morning I found that the patch 

  [PATCH] lib: Rename compiler intrinsic selects to GENERIC_LIB_*
  https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10335017/

has been merged by Linus almost two weeks ago.

So I can prepare corresponding generic GCC functions barebox patchseries
(it will be useful for MIPS). Next I shall submit RISC-V v2 patchseries.
RISC-V will use generic GCC functions from lib/ too.
