Isn't it growing rapidly now? We have two register calls for the ARM,
one for the RISC-V. One more region specific ISA I am aware of and it
may have op-tee support in future? It is time we fix this logic
in the better way.

This is started looking ugly in my opinion.

do we need to name it optee_riscv? we don't use optee_arm anywhere in this
code I believe. 

More later...
