Roughly, system call and user oriented fault are the cases.

Make dept aware of the entrances of arm64 and add support
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_DEPT_SUPPORT to arm64.
The description of what needs to be tracked probably needs some
tightening up here, it's not clear to me for example why exceptions for
mops or the vector extensions aren't included here, or what the
distinction is with error faults like BTI or GCS not being tracked?
