Like I say it'd be a very minor thing to have one - it is more just a
thing you'd go looking for in the signals tests rather than something
that's absolutely essential.  For trivial things like TPIDR2 I've just
added a trivial thing that verifies that the frame is present iff the
matching HWCAP is set.  Having the test in the mm tests is probably fine
though.
