There's no mutual exclusion here, but since we only generate the data
payloads if userspace explicitly chooses to enter streaming mode or
enable ZA/ZT0 I would tend to class any VL dependent size there as opt
in and only include the base structs.  I'm not clear what your thinking
is with specifying them for some vector lengths.
