[PATCH 01/21] arm64: add macros to read/write system registers

From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland at arm.com>

Rather than crafting custom macros for reading/writing each system
register provide generics accessors, read_sysreg and write_sysreg, for
this purpose.

Unlike read_cpuid, calls to read_exception_reg are never expected
to be optimized away or replaced with synthetic values.
