Perhaps bike-shedding, but "Reset" has a different connotation in 
kernel, this is clear registers IMO. And "Reset Vector ..." sounds 
totally different at first glance.

Is VS writable in implementations not implementing V hardware.

Priv spec seems to be confusing. It states

    "The FS[1:0] and VS[1:0] WARL fields..."

Above implies it can be written always but will read legal values only.
But then this follows.

	"If neither the v registers nor S-mode is implemented, then VS 	
	is read-only zero. If S-mode is implemented but the v registers
	are not, VS may optionally be read-only zero"

What does optionally mean for software ?

Third instance of duplicated SR_FS | SR_VS. Better to add a helper 
SR_FS_VS or some such macro.

Is that actually happening ?
