Are there sub-dollar ARM microcontrollers that run Linux? Anyway there are a bunch of cheap (not sub-dollar, but sub $30) RISC-V chips coming out of China this year which will run Linux.

Not quite, but the "Linux business card" that went round recently uses the F1C100s, which is $3.50 including RAM in package. https://www.thirtythreeforty.net/posts/2019/12/my-business-c...

According to this link, the F1C100s has 32 Mbytes (!) of DRAM, which is pretty amazing for $1.42 USD in small quantities: https://www.cnx-software.com/2018/08/17/licheepi-nano-cheap-...
