I'll update this (and similar) to trap such registers when we don't support SPE in the guest. My original concern in the cover letter was in how to prevent the guest from attempting to use these registers in the first place - I think the solution I was looking for is to trap-and-emulate ID_AA64DFR0_EL1 such that the PMSVer bits indicate that SPE is not emulated.
