Any valid implementation of the architecture should generate an undefined exception for writes to a read-only register, such as OSLSR_EL1. Nonetheless, the KVM handler actually implements write-ignore behavior. Align the trap handler for OSLSR_EL1 with hardware behavior. If such a write ever traps to EL2, inject an undef into the guest and print a warning.
