Hi Prabhakar,

Thanks for your patch!

This is never true.
I guess originally you wanted to call riscv_noncoherent_register_cache_ops()
unconditionally from common code, instead of the various *register_cmo_ops()?
But that would have required something like

#ifdef CONFIG_ERRATA_THEAD_CMO
#define THEAD_CMO_OPS_PTR (&thead_cmo_ops)
#else
#define THEAD_CMO_OPS_PTR NULL
#endif

Or can we come up with some macro like pm_ptr(), but that also takes
care of the "&", so we can do "#define thead_cmo_ops NULL"?
