Thanks for your patch!

The technical part LGTM, so

We definitely want ARCH_RENESAS, as it serves as a gatekeeper for
Kconfig options for IP cores found on Renesas ARM and RISC-V SoCs.

Do we need this symbol? You could as well make ARCH_RENESAS above
visible, and defer the actual SoC selection to ARCH_R9A07G043 in
drivers/soc/renesas/Kconfig[1].

I don't know what is the policy on RISC-V. ARM64 has a "single-symbol
in arch/arm64/Kconfig.platforms"-policy, so we handle SoC selection
in drivers/soc/renesas/Kconfig, and that is fine, as it avoids merge
conflicts.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
