Just wanted to bump up this discussion again.  In binutils, the vector crypto
v1.0.0 support was released 4 months ago in 2.41.  See the NEWS file at
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blob_plain;f=binutils/NEWS;hb=refs/heads/binutils-2_41-branch

    * The RISC-V port now supports the following new standard extensions:
      - Zicond (conditional zero instructions)
      - Zfa (additional floating-point instructions)
      - Zvbb, Zvbc, Zvkg, Zvkned, Zvknh[ab], Zvksed, Zvksh, Zvkn, Zvknc, Zvkng,
        Zvks, Zvksc, Zvkg, Zvkt (vector crypto instructions)

That's every extension listed in the vector crypto v1.0.0 specification
(https://github.com/riscv/riscv-crypto/releases/download/v1.0.0/riscv-crypto-spec-vector.pdf).

LLVM still has the vector crypto extensions marked as "experimental" extensions.
However, there is an open pull request to mark them non-experimental:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/69000

Could we just go ahead and remove riscv.pm, develop with binutils for now, and
prioritize getting the LLVM support finished?
