No. If you can't explain why you need this in the commit message, why
should I reverse engineer that from some obscure piece of firmware?

So the firmware changes things in incompatible ways. Why does it
matter to Linux? Why isn't the fix directly applied to the firmware
instead? Why isn't the riscv,plic0 fallback appropriate?

Why? There is no material difference at the driver level, and
/proc/interrupts won't be the target of a branding exercise (which
this series seems to be all about).
