Could you implement some tests for these changes? We really need to see
that userspace is only allowed to select a subset of features that're
provided by the host, and that the CPU feature set never exceeds what
the host can support.
Additionally, there are places in the kernel where we use host ID
register values for the sake of emulation (DBGDIDR, LORegion). These
both should instead be using the _guest_ ID register values.
