The macro SBI_IMP_OPENSBI seems weird (I would read it as "SBI Implementation OpenSBI"). However, if we implement an enum struct for SBI_IMP_ID (There are numerous IDs available), the macro can be abbreviated to OpenSBI. By doing this, the conditional checking of the implementation ID would be more readable, as shown below:
if (sbi_firmware_id != OPENSBI)
