Hi please consider!
Linux kernels pre-6.9 can copy a dirty v-state during signal return path:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/arch/riscv/kernel/signal.c?h=v6.13-rc1&id=c27fa53b858b4ee6552a719aa599c250cf98a586
We should not auto-enable vector with such kernel, as we must be able to receive signals during the execution of vector code.
Manual tested pre and post 6.9 as expected.
Thanks, Robbin
