MicroBlaze V is new AMD/Xilinx soft-core 32bit RISC-V processor IP.
It is hardware compatible with classic MicroBlaze processor. Processor can
be used with standard AMD/Xilinx IPs including interrupt controller and
timer.

Bindings for SoCs (and by extension boards with them) usually go to in
$arch/$vendor.yaml not into soc/$vendor/$vendor.yaml. Why is this any
different?

I actually found it based on tracking renesas.yaml which describes one of
risc-v board. No problem to move it under bindings/riscv/

That one is kinda a special case, as it contains arm/arm64/riscv.

If they are kinda a special case then what are we?
All AMD/Xilinx platforms(ZynqMP/Versal/Versal NET) can have arm/arm64/riscv/microblaze cpus(riscv/microblaze as soft cores) in the same board (IIRC I have also seen xtensa soft core on our chips too).

Thanks,
