It is not obvious which MACH_SUN?I are ARCH_SUN6I derived. So if you can come up with a descriptive name for 'a number of things in common, such as having separate ahb reset registers in the ccm' that's fine otherwise this obfuscates the code, not clarifies.
I don't particularly object to the patch but this occurred to me too. I suppose the rule is "first sunxi to look this way".
How about we call groups of similar SoCs a "generation", i.e. ARCH_SUNXI_GEN2 is what is called ARCH_SUN6I here, meaning GEN1 would be SUN4/5/7I.
I like the GEN idea, but not the numbering as it is a bit too arbitrary how about: ARCH_SUNXI_GEN_SUN6I or (better I think) just SUNXI_GEN_SUN6I ?
I know that does not solve the fact that MACH_SUN7I is SUNXI_GEN_SUN4I but we cannot fix that, at least this way it will be explicit.
