Hi Jamie,
Funny, your email has a "Mail-Followup-To:" field that contains
everyone but you... Not ideal! ;-)

Ah, the joy of testing with older guests. I guess i should upgrade by
test rig and play with some newer guests at L1.

I'd like to try and avoid that in order to keep the basic logic as
simple as possible for the time being, and as close to the tried and
trusted flow we have today.

I think this is the real thing. We should never propagate trap bits
for features we don't want to support in guests. The L1 kernel sets
these bits unconditionally, despite PtrAuth never being advertised,
which trips the host code.
Could you try the untested hack below?
Thanks,
M.

Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible.
