Yeah, this is the unfortunate problem of half-baked bindings (IMO)
ending up in OpenSBI (which likely means they also ended up in QEMU).
This T-Head stuff is coming across our (metaphorical) desks, so we are
obviously going to try to do things correctly. I may end up speaking to
Anup later today, if I do I will point him at this thread (if he hasn't
seen it already).
