I have just refreshed the whole set of patches, which now address all
review comments received so far. Many thanks to everyone who has taken
the time to review.

I will host a buildslve connected to the 'silent staging buildbot' to
provide public build status once the RISC-V backend starts getting
committed. Additionally, Colin Schmidt and I have submitted a proposal
for a RISC-V related Birds of a Feather session at the 2016 US LLVM
Developers' Meeting. If that is accepted it may be a good venue for
further discussion about more long-term plans.

Does anybody have any other thoughts on the addition of RISC-V to LLVM?

Best,

Alex
