We've reserved the instruction-set extension name ``P'' for a future standard set of packed-SIMD extensions. Many other extensions can build upon a packed-SIMD extension, taking advantage of the wide data registers and datapaths separate from the integer unit. @@ -39,8 +39,8 @@ architectures are a better choice and should use the V extension.
