SubjectRe: [PATCH v2 1/3] dt-bindings: riscv: document cbom-block-size
Hi Anup and Heiko,

The CBO specification says:
"""
2.7. Software Discovery
The initial set of CMO extensions requires the following information
to be discovered by software:
• The size of the cache block for management and prefetch instructions
• The size of the cache block for zero instructions
"""

Therefore we should add riscv,cboz-block-size as well, or?
Additionally, should we add riscv,cbop-block-size as well or rename
riscv,cbom-block-size into
riscv,cbom-cbop-block-size to reflect that this size is also used for
prefetch instructions?

BR
Christoph
