Hi Jan

Yeah thanks, I will, but this seems to need a v2 for some minor changes,
so...

Hi Marek,

Do you mind sending a v2 patch with these two minor changes,
1. The semi-alphabetic order issue
2. Remove 1.9.1 in the document.  Btw, it is also good to remove 1.9.1 in
the dis-asembler's help description, that probably just forgot to remove at
that time.  But just keep it in the cpu-riscv.c since the linker still need
to recognize it.

Thanks
Nelson
