The reserved memory section uses the terms WIMG and VLE.
The WIMG is expanded a bit but VLE is not.
I presume these are PowerPC terms. (a quick google reinforces this assumption.)
Do these statements only apply to PPC or are we suppose to translate to Arm and RISC-V?

These terms should be in the "definition of terms" and an spec reference included.
If PPC terms, clarify how they should be handled for other architectures.

No clue really. I would guess PPC specific too.

Issues tend to just sit here unfixed. Can you propose a patch to address this?

I can create PRs when I know enough to do it.
I am not sure I do in this case.
I think it is useful to have the issue even if it sits a while.

I am thinking the spec should be on the agenda of a DTE call.
