Thanks for this; I have a couple of minor comments below, which I'll fix
up when applying.

Since we're touching this, I'll make it:

	orr	x0, x0, #(3 << 12)

> +	cmp	x1, #3
> +	b.lt	1

For consistency, I'll make this `b.lt 1f`

For legibility, I'll re-order this as:

	// Do not trap PMSNEVFR_EL1 if present.
	cmp	x1, #3
	b.lt	1f
	orr	x0, x0, #(1 << 36)

Thanks,
Mark.
