Family SoC(R9A07G043) is at top level. Then it has different SoCId for taking care of
differences for SoC based on ARMV8 and RISC-V which has separate compatible like
r9a07g043u11 and r9a07g043f01?

What I meant is board based on Family SoC(R9A07G043) that is either based on ARMv8 or
RISC-V cpu architecture.
