If you increase the version_id and minimum_version_id in this struct
that should handle it:

static const VMStateDescription vmstate_vector = {
    .name = "cpu/vector",
    .version_id = 2,
    .minimum_version_id = 2,
    .needed = vector_needed,
    .fields = (VMStateField[]) {
        VMSTATE_UINT64_ARRAY(env.vreg, RISCVCPU, 32 * RV_VLEN_MAX / 64),
        VMSTATE_UINTTL(env.vxrm, RISCVCPU),
        VMSTATE_UINTTL(env.vxsat, RISCVCPU),
        VMSTATE_UINTTL(env.vl, RISCVCPU),
        VMSTATE_UINTTL(env.vstart, RISCVCPU),
        VMSTATE_UINTTL(env.vtype, RISCVCPU),
        VMSTATE_BOOL(env.vill, RISCVCPU),
        VMSTATE_END_OF_LIST()
    }
};
