Description

Description

https://github.com/lowRISC/opentitan/pull/23555 removed primgen, but some blocks still depend on the symbols in lowrisc:prim:prim_pkg, so it cannot yet be removed.

https://github.com/lowRISC/opentitan/blob/4ec736f1255e667e4b997d77a50379078401bef7/hw/ip/prim/rtl/prim_pkg.sv#L10-L20

Research direction

Start with hw/ip/prim/rtl/prim_pkg.sv, especially lines 10-20, and review PR 23555 for the primgen removal context. Identify the remaining blocks that depend on lowrisc:prim:prim_pkg symbols, then verify that those dependencies are phased out and the package can be removed.
