No problem, we're here to help you ;-)

The serialN aliases are standardized, so you cannot change them.

You can change the labels, so that's OK.

But without specifying slave devices first you cannot use the
controller anyway? While I2C supports instantiating slaves from
userspace by writing to the new_device file in sysfs, SPI doesn't
have that feature.

So it is software policy? Then it doesn't belong in the board DTS either.

That would be a revert of commit 73d3c44115514616 ("riscv: dts:
microchip: add missing compatibles for clint and plic"), which you
supplied an R-b tag for?
Is this the same plic as in the FU540 SoC? Or do we need a new
microchip,mpfs-plic compatible value?

MAC addresses are supposed to be unique.

Exactly.
