The part you labeled AVX-512 I would call the larger file count added with AVX-512.
I would tag the whole left column as the high half of AVX-512, or AVX-256.
The right column has a 16 bit chunk in the middle that is separate, like high bits of a 80 bit float in a 128 bit wide register. A visible artifact of power gating and access of 64, 80, and 128 bit parts on a use need detected basis.
The part you labeled FPU Regs I would call a heavily ported cache of a two level register system?
The much larger full file would not need anywhere near as many ports saving power, with a highly ported cache in front.
Is the vector register file so big and slow that a two level system makes sense for performance or power use reasons?
