It's not exclusive, it's an extension of altivec/fp, and yes it has
its own MSR bit to enable it.
what MSR bit does it use... I'm not seeing the code add or test a new

What exactly do you mean by its an extension of altivec/fp? Are the
instructions considered part of altivec/fp or is it just reusing the
register storage like SPE?
