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
