Obiviously for that route, maintainer acks will be needed. Iff it is decided to make this change, I suggest to do it at the end of the v6.1-rc1 merge window, or even better, between rc1 and rc2. That way the affected subsystems can just base their for-v6.2 branches on v6.1-rc2, and have all renames. If (a) you postpone this to v6.2, there will be more users to handle, and (b) you take this through the RISC-V tree, you will miss all newly introduced users in other subsystem trees.
