Was the original completely wrong? If so, the changelog should probably reflect that. Or else what am I missing? Thanks, jon

This was simply due to idiocy on my part, due to a very last-minute patch submission, where I missed that the original documented magic number was already in little-endian format. The updated number from Chester is correct. So, Reviewed-by: Paul Walmsley <paul.walmsley@sifive.com> - Paul
