Yeah, I did see Palmer commenting on RISC-V/riscv once.
I think riscv is more common since it matches the arch directory
but Palmer himself uses RISC-V

I've seen patchsets that use both RISC-V and riscv haha

Maybe it is time to pick one? Palmer?

Again, that's down to Palmer (and now me I guess to a lesser extent
given I've starting doing PRs).

My OCD would like a single prefix though ;)
