Subject: [RFC] [PATCH] arm64: survive after access to unimplemented register
Not all vendors implement all the system registers ARM specifies.
So access them causes undefined instruction abort and then kernel
panic. There are 3 ways to handle it we can figure out:
- use conditional compilation and erratas;
- use kernel patching;
- inline fixups resolving the abort.
Last option is more robust as it does not require additional efforts
to support targers. It is looking reasonable because in many cases
optional registers should be RAZ if not implemented. Special cases may
be handled by underlying __read_cpuid() when needed.
Tested on QEMU emulator version 2.3.0 (Debian 1:2.3+dfsg-5ubuntu9.2)
that does not implement SYS_ID_AA64MMFR2_EL1 register. (Fixed in new
releases),
