MTE provides a mode that asynchronously updates the TFSR_EL1 register
when a tag check exception is detected.
To take advantage of this mode the kernel has to verify the status of
the register at:
1. Context switching
2. Return to user/EL0 (Not required in entry from EL0 since the kernel
did not run)
3. Kernel entry from EL1
4. Kernel exit to EL1
If the register is non-zero a trace is reported.
Add the required features for EL1 detection and reporting.
Note: ITFSB bit is set in the SCTLR_EL1 register hence it guaranties that
the indirect writes to TFSR_EL1 are synchronized at exception entry to
EL1. On the context switch path the synchronization is guarantied by the
dsb() in __switch_to().
