* Add support for various T-Head extensions (XTheadVector, XTheadZvlsseg
and XTheadZvamo) from version 2.3.0 of the T-Head ISA manual.
+* The BPF assembler now uses semi-colon (;) to separate statements, and
+ therefore they cannot longer be used to begin line comments. This matches the
+ behavior of the clang/LLVM BPF assembler.

Changes in 2.41:
* Add support for the KVX instruction set.
