Also because of this split between to persons, I was switching to his
branch, assuming that, when he updates the baseline, he will also rebase
riscv.

But this issue should be resolved now within the next 2 or 3 weeks by

So I'm unsure if it is worth switching branches once more or rather wait
until we can simply drop that line above.
