We've been round this issue before. The documentation
uses "32-bit" as a shorthand for "64 bit but the top
32 bits are RES0". There is no way in AArch64 to do a
32 bit read or write of a system register -- the only
instructions are MSR/MRS, which are always 64 bits.
Similarly, the KVM kernel API exposes all registers as
64 bits wide.
We could in theory have a mechanism that allowed a
64 bit system register access to be backed by a 32 bit
field value, but it's simpler not to.

It's not directly accessed via a .fieldoffset() entry,
so there's no requirement for it to be 64 bits wide.
I've also generally left the ARMCPU values which are
just constants to be used in ".resetvalue =" specifications
alone. It's only the cases where a struct field is the
backing storage for the register that need widening.
