I am not sure why you say that these are custom extensions.

Multiple folks have clarified that both Smaia and Ssaia are frozen
ISA extensions as-per RVI process. The individual chapters which
are in the draft state have nothing to do with Smaia and Ssaia CSRs.

I am planning to send this series as a second PR for Linux-6.3 after your
PR (which includes ISA string refactoring) is merged. Is that okay with you?

With that said, it would request you to ACK this patch as well.
