While initializing EL2, switch Pointer Authentication if detected
from EL1. We use the EL1-provided keys though.
Perhaps "enable address authentication", to avoid confusion with
context-switch, and since generic authentication cannot be disabled
locally at EL2.

I see this is the same pattern we use in the kvm context switch, but I
think we can use the ARM64_HAS_ADDRESS_AUTH cap instead (likewise in the
existing code).

AFAICT that won't permit mismatch given both ARM64_HAS_ADDRESS_AUTH_ARCH
and ARM64_HAS_ADDRESS_AUTH_IMP_DEF are dealt with as
ARM64_CPUCAP_BOOT_CPU_FEATURE.

Assuming we have a spare register, it would be nice if we could follow the same
pattern as in proc.S, where we do:

| ldr     x2, =SCTLR_ELx_ENIA | SCTLR_ELx_ENIB | \
|              SCTLR_ELx_ENDA | SCTLR_ELx_ENDB
| orr     x0, x0, x2

... though we could/should use mov_q rather than a load literal, here and in
proc.S.

... otherwise this looks sound to me.

Thanks,
Mark.
