This is ABI, and not changing, exactly because userspace sees it. M.

The interface for SiFive's PLIC was adopted and clarified by RISC-V as the standard PLIC interface. Now that several PLIC implementations by different vendors share this same interface, it is somewhat misleading to report "SiFive PLIC" to userspace, when no SiFive hardware may be present. This is especially the case when some implementations are subtly incompatible with the binding and behavior of the SiFive PLIC, yet are similar enough to share a driver.
