There is no one-to-one mapping between PLIC context and HARTID. Instead,
we have many-to-one mapping between PLIC contexts and HARTID. In other
words, we have one PLIC context for each interrupt capable mode (i.e.
M/S-mode) of each HART.

For example, on SiFive Unleashed we have 5 HARTs but HARTID=0 has
only M-mode capable of taking interrupts so we have total (1 + 2x4) = 9
PLIC contexts.

I would also like to highlight that this patch is forcing PLIC driver to always
use PLIC S-mode context for each HART which breaks the Linux RISC-V
NoMMU kernel.

There is no issue with the existing defines because these are aligned with
above and latest PLIC spec.

NACK to this patch from my side.
