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.

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