Now that I got a dev environment booting off master I have switched to your
bthread branch.  I found there is already a commit to remove openrisc in next.

I will revert this in my branch.

Is there a timeframe you aim to have this all done?

Also, It seems networking it not working for me that is ok for the work here,
but it will be something I have to look into next for OpenRISC.
