+RISC-V "virt" board "riscv,delegate" DT property (since 9.1)
+''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
+
+The "riscv,delegate" DT property was added in QEMU 7.0 as part of
+the AIA APLIC support.  The property changed name during the review
+process in Linux and the correct name ended up being
+"riscv,delegation".  Changing the DT property name will break all
+available firmwares that are using the current (wrong) name.  The
+property is kept as is in 9.1, together with "riscv,delegation", to
+give more time for firmware developers to change their code.
