Looks good to me. One minor suggestion below, but either way:

Since these are in macros, we could use \@ to generate a macro-specific
lavel rather than a magic number, which would be less likely to conflict
with the surrounding environment and would be more descriptive. We do
that in a few places already, and here it could look something like:
| alternative_if_not ARM64_HAS_ADDRESS_AUTH
| b .L__skip_pauth_switch\@
| alternative_else_nop_endif
|
| ...
|
| .L__skip_pauth_switch\@:
Per the gas documentation
| \@
|
| as maintains a counter of how many macros it has executed in this
| pseudo-variable; you can copy that number to your output with ‘\@’,
| but only within a macro definition.
No worries if you don't want to change that now; the Acked-by stands
either way.
