Yet another thought -- maybe it's time to move all 64-bit ARM stuff to its own arch/arm64 as it is in Linux kernel since I don't remember when? There are quite a few SoCs out there to justify such a move...
No, we don't want to split ARMv8 out from arch/arm. In Linux the split was done to leave a large amount of legacy decisions behind (similar to how there was arch/i386 and arch/x86_64 and is now just arch/x86) which we do not want/need to do.
