Does this section actually add any value at all?
By nature of oneOf structure above, such an ordering is required for
existing entries. For something not here, should we instead be noting
that sifive,clint0 is to be used when compatible with the SiFive/RISC-V
clint, rather than doing a sifive-blocks-ip-versioning.txt dance?

As it stands though, patch is an improvement, so:
