PATCH 1/1 arm64: sysreg: Remove unused and rotting SCTLR_ELx field definitions

Our SCTLR_ELx field definitions are somewhat over-engineered in that they carefully define masks describing the RES0/RES1 bits and then use these to construct further masks representing bits to be set/cleared for the _EL1 and _EL2 registers.

However, most of the resulting definitions aren't actually used by anybody and have subsequently started to bit-rot when new fields have been added by the architecture, resulting in fields being part of the RES0 mask despite being defined and used elsewhere.

Rather than fix up these masks, simply remove the unused parts entirely so that we can drop the maintenance burden. We can always add things back if we need them in the future.

Our SCTLR_ELx field definitions are somewhat over-engineered in that they carefully define masks describing the RES0/RES1 bits and then use these to construct further masks representing bits to be set/cleared for the _EL1 and _EL2 registers.

Rather than fix up these masks, simply remove the unused parts entirely so that we can drop the maintenance burden. We can always add things back if we need them in the future.

I have no strong feelings either way, so FWIW:

Mark.
