I would like to see CONFIG_ARM64_PTR_AUTH testing for compiler support
via Kconfig (as stack-protector does). This would allow developers to
only see the option if it was available (i.e. no "downgrade" happens
if the compiler is missing support). Using cc-option runs the risk of
building a kernel with CONFIG_ARM64_PTR_AUTH set, but _not_ actually
using ptr auth.
