Can this patch be put after the context switch patch instead?
Here, we accept a request from userspace to enable ptrauth, but it will
mysteriously fail to work. I worked around a similar issue by defining
KVM_ARM64_GUEST_HAS_SVE early in the SVE series, but putting the logic
to set this flag in vcpu->arch.flags later on (see also comments about
this below).

Nit: we might make this change, but we don't promise that it will happsen.
So, maybe write:
"[...] have no userspace ABI changes if support is added in the future
to allow these two features to be enabled independently of one another."

We should probably add:
Must be requested if KVM_ARM_VCPU_PTRAUTH_GENERIC is also requested.

Similarly:
Must be requested if KVM_ARM_VCPU_PTRAUTH_ADDRESS is also requested.
(Or otherwise explain that both features must enabled together or not at
all.)

We're checking 5 things here, which we don't necessarily want to do
every time.
Is this used on any hot path?
This kind of thing is one reason why I added vcpu->arch.flags: we can
make the policy decision about whether to set the flag in
kvm_reset_vcpu(), then afterwards we only need to check the flag.

This looks like it works, but I find the way vcpu->arch.features is used
in two different ways at the same time a bit confusing.
