Subject: [PATCH v6 04/38] arm64: Document boot requirements for Guarded
 Control Stacks

FEAT_GCS introduces a number of new system registers, we require that
access to these registers is not trapped when we identify that the feature
is detected.

 enter the kernel in the same exception level.  Where the values documented
