Thanks for the patch! The added comments and moving the implementation
to its own file make it easier to review.

Probably can drop the added newline?

While I can appreciate the indentation, it's unusual to indent
additional depths of kernel Makefiles.  At least the rest of this file
does not do so.  Of course, the other Makefile you touch below does
two spaces.  At least try to keep the file internally consistent, even
if the kernel itself is inconsistent.

The indentation should match the above (from this file).  Looks like 1
tab after lib-y.  See L34(CONFIG_CPU_32v3) for what I would have
expected.

ah, I see that the reference implementation uses an assembly comment
here. Ok (sorry for the noise).

The use of tabs vs spaces in these comments is inconsistent.  Not that
I can see whitespace, but:
https://github.com/nickdesaulniers/dotfiles/blob/37359525f5a403b4ed2d3f9d1bbbee2da8ec8115/.vimrc#L35-L41
Also, I don't think you need to tab indent every line after the first.
Where did that format come from?

Should we be using different masks for ARM vs THUMB as per the
reference implementation?

The reference implementation applies the mask to sv_pc and sv_fp.  I
assume we want to, too?

I wonder what `dsi` stands for, it could use a better name.  Maybe put
that mask in a more descriptively named section and use that instead
of `.Ldsi+8`?

It's too bad this should work for older ARM versions, v6 added
dedicated instructions for this:

Do we need to do anything to test .Ldsi+4? Otherwise looks like we
