No, this is correct. The SoC is made by Eswin (eic7700) and the board
(hifive premier) by SiFive. None of the compatibles listed here are for
the IP core.

If there's another SoC with different peripherals and the same p550 IP
core, I would expect a new SoC compatible /and/ a new board compatible.

Cheers,
Conor.
