Before attempting to support the pre-ratification version of vector
found on older T-Head CPUs, disallow "v" in riscv,isa on these
platforms. The deprecated property has no clear way to communicate
the specific version of vector that is supported and much of the vendor
provided software puts "v" in the isa string. riscv,isa-extensions
should be used instead. This should not be too much of a burden for
these systems, as the vendor shipped devicetrees and firmware do not
work with a mainline kernel and will require updating.
We can limit this restriction to only ignore v in riscv,isa on CPUs
that report T-Head's vendor ID and a zero marchid. Newer T-Head CPUs
that support the ratified version of vector should report non-zero
marchid, according to Guo Ren [1].

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
