As far as I know, sophgo's SoC product names all start with "sg", while 
products starting with "cv" come from CVITEK (another chip company). 
CVITEK was acquired by sophgo a year ago, so now many SOC product names 
that originally started with "cv" are being repackaged and changed to 
start with "sg".

For the cv1800b adopted by Duo, Sophgo has made it clear that it will 
not change its codename.

But I heard that for other products, such as the cv1812h used by 
Huashanpi, sophgo may change their names in the future, but sophgo has 
not officially confirmed it yet. Looks like sophgo themselves are still 
in the process of digesting cv's products, ;)

Since we have just started to support cv1812h and have not done much 
work yet, I suggest not to merge this patch into the mainline, and wait 
until there is clear news before doing this to avoid introducing 
unnecessary modifications later.

Thanks,

Chen
