Nitpick: The change log should state the change; it took me an instant
to realize the "Do it" meant implement the git summary description.  The
summary can be more brief (or it could say the same if it fits under 80
chars).

I don't quite understand, but then I don't know what is opensbi either,
so I'd have to read more.  Or if you can expound a bit that comment for
