There is no need to expose RISCV_NDS to the Kconfig menu as it is
an ax25-specific option.

Hi Bin

Can you explain why there is no need to expose RISCV_NDS here ?

This is specific to AX25, and there is no need to appear in the
Kconfig menu when people are building U-Boot for some other RISC-V
platforms. Also even if you select Y in the Kconfig menu for this
option for platforms other than AX25, it just does not help since all
its logic is within arch/riscv/cpu/ax25.

Bin

AX25 can not select RISCV_NDS by default, it may cause build fail problem.
I still prefer to enable it by make menuconfig.
Can you drop this patch ?

Thanks

I prefer not to drop this patch since it's not supposed to be exposed
to other platforms.

Do you mean the build fail problem is custom CSR numbers like
mcache_ctl? Can we use hardcoded CSR number instead?

Thanks for your suggestion about hardcoded CSR number.

But actually I hope the mcache_ctl will be disabled by default in this stage.
Because some drivers of ae350 (like spi, smc flash driver, mac driver)
still have some access problems when cache is enable.
I am fixing it now.
But mmc driver is ready when cache is enable.
That is why I prefer enable cache by make menuconfig.
It will be easy to switch cache enable or disable by make menuconfig
without modifying Kconfig.

How do you think about it ?

Please check the v5 patch [1] which should satisfy your requirement.
