Depends on what you consider "original". My intent with these new
bindings was to deliberately exclude from `i` things that are already in
extensions at the time of writing, so that when an platform shows up
that decided not to implement them, it does not need a special case
added.
I'm fine with doing it this way though, if that is what you want, but
what do you mean by "the implementation does"? To align the
implementation with the meaning in the current binding, would we need
to refuse harts in riscv_early_of_processor_hartid() in Linux?
