This fails because https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux.git/commit/?id=fdd867fe9b32
added new fields to that register (ID_AA64DFR1_EL1)

and commit b80b701d5a6 ("KVM: arm64: Snapshot all non-zero RES0/RES1 sysreg fields for later checking")
took a snapshot of the fields, so the RES0 (reserved 0) bits don't match anymore.

Not sure how to resolve it in the git branches though.

Thanks,
Joey
