RVA23 is actually a decent ISA for linux machines for the long term, RVA20 was not.

Presumably there's going to be some hardware releases later this year that Ubuntu has early knowledge of.

Does this line up with what riscv android will also require?

This is setting it all up to happen again with whatever is found to be wrong with RVA23.

RVA20 was missing generally expected features, RVA23 isnt

RVA30 is N+1, presumably we wont see shipping devices for that until the early 2030s
