Is this being the c900 compatible correct? You mention in your commit
message that this split is done on the sg2042, but the rule is applied
here for any c900 series "aclint". Do we know if this is a sophgo
specific thing (or even sg2042 specific), or if it applies generally?

If it applies generally, I would probably just delete this, but unless
someone can confirm this to be general, I'd probably leave the else
clause and swap for the specific sg2042 compatible above.

Otherwise, this looks like a better fix than you had proposed before :)

Thanks,
Conor.
