I think "accurate" is correct; the defines accurately describe the 
layout of the register in many cases, but not all. In cases where the 
register layout is different, the defines are not accurate for those 
cases. I suppose "correct" and "incorrect" would be suitable synonyms 
for "accurate" and "not accurate" if you wish.
