'0' is the only event number specified by the SDEI specification. For use with
RAS the event number is read from the HEST. (and there may me more than one of
them).

Sure.

(this was modified in my various attempts to get this working on non-vhe systems
with KVM).

Wouldn't this invoke sw-pan's __uaccess_ttbr0_disable():

Probing depends on VHE if booted at EL2, can we guarantee to have PAN (and
therefore not-SW-PAN) too?

(otherwise I can add 'depends on !ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN' to the Kconfig)

(I've been building this on x86 to check I'd not done anything arm64 specific
outside the arch code...)

Sure, I'll move this hunk and the Kconfig create a place holder asm/sdei.h in
the earlier patch.

Thanks,
