 Cris has seen significant updates in 2.6.25 by its maintainer.
 It's not a very active port, but skipping updates for one kernel
 version is on a completely different scale from doing nothing
 at all for over three years as in the v850 case.

Also, cris has a tree in linux-next now, so there will be updates in 2.6.27.

For all I know, v850 has been broken and unmaintained for a few years now,
didn't someone have a patch to remove it entirely?

I don't currently see any architecture (other than v850) in a
state that justifies removing it entirely.
