I'm less worried about the label & more interested in the compatible.
hart0 is, as you say, not a u74. Should we not be adding a "sifive,s7"
compatible string to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/riscv/cpus.yaml
and using that here instead?

Cool, thanks.

Yeah, I knew asking that question that the "RV64GBC" in SiFive's online
documentation was using outdated terminology. Also, that is not the doc
for your core complex as far as I can tell. That is the document for
impid 0x0621_1222, whereas (IIRC) your core is 0x0421_0427.
Jess and I had a look one evening but could not find the 21G1.02.00
revision of this document, which is the one corresponding to 0x421_0427.
See Table 92 for more details.

I could not find the 21G1.02.00 version of this document online, but I
was able to find the 21G1.01.00 version of it & that version does not
support the Sscofpmf extension (but does have Zba/Zbb support).

Just because other devicetrees omit them, doesn't mean that you should
too!
This compatible should be an accurate description of your hardware, so
you should add what you actually have.
If you have Zba and Zbb, then add them.
I would double check against your internal documentation for 21G2.02.00
as to whether you do have Sscofpmf, and if you do, add that too!

That way, whenever support for those extensions lands, the jh7110 will
automatically pick it up, rather than needing to have them retrofitted.

Thanks,
Conor.
