Reads a register value from a userspace address to a kernel u64
variable.  Note that the id may still encode a register size of 4 bytes,
in which case only 4 bytes will be copied from userspace into the least
significant word of *val.

Reads a register value from a userspace address to a kernel u32 variable
or a kernel array of two u32 values.  That is, it may really copy two
u32 registers when used with registers defined by the ABI to be 8 bytes
long (e.g. TTBR0/TTBR1).

Writes a register value to a userspace address from a kernel u64 value.
Note that the register size could be only 4 bytes, in which case only
the least significant 4 bytes will be copied into to the userspace
address.

Writes a register value to a userspace address from a kernel u32 variable
or a kernel array of two u32 values.  That is, it may really copy two
u32 registers when used with registers defined by the ABI to be 8 bytes
long (e.g. TTBR0/TTBR1).

It's definitely an improvement with the new naming, and I do appreciate
you taking the time to write comments.  (Apologies for suggesting a raw
rewrite, but there were a number of language issues with the proposed
versions and it felt overly burdensome on you to ask you to address all
of them).

However, I'm still not crazy about this overall approach (see separate
mail on the old thread).

I'm curious, how many special cases are there really, and how many
places would we have to introduce a conditional on the calling side?

Thanks,
