It is unnecessary to distinguish c9xx, their event index is compatible.
The dtb and opensbi will final decide which event can be used.

The content is as follows.

processor     : 0
hart          : 0
isa           : rv64imafdc
mmu           : sv39
uarch         : thead,c910
mvendorid     : 0x5b7
marchid       : 0x0
mimpid        : 0x0

The `mvendorid`, `marchid`, `mimpid` are the same across allwinner D1 (C906),
T-HEAD th1520 (C910) and the sophgo mango (C920). It seems T-HEAD use MCPUID
CSR to store CPU info. But this is not standard and not shown in cpuinfo.
