      <para>Vector Bitwise Bit Clear (register) performs a bitwise AND
between a register value and the complement of a register value,
and places the result in the destination register.</para>
      <para>Depending on settings in the <xref linkend="ARMARM_AArch32.cpacr">CPACR</xref>,
<xref linkend="ARMARM_AArch32.nsacr">NSACR</xref>, and
<xref linkend="ARMARM_AArch32.hcptr">HCPTR</xref> registers, and the Security
state and PE mode in which the instruction is executed, an attempt to
execute the instruction might be <arm-defined-word>UNDEFINED</arm-defined-word>, or
trapped to Hyp mode.
