Look at the latest added target-openrisc in qemu.git and/or at my
target-rl78 at GitHub.com/afaerber/qemu-rl78/. That will also give you
some ideas how to split your new target into reviewable patches.

Also look at the mailing list, you may find old/bad examples in our code
base but patch review usually points out the right ways to do things
nowadays. When in doubt, ask. :)

Regards,
Andreas
