Since `OSLM` is the field as a whole, I think this should have another level of
hierarchy, e.g.

#define SYS_OSLSR_OSLM_MASK			(BIT(3) | BIT(0))
#define SYS_OSLSR_OSLM_NI			0
#define SYS_OSLSR_OSLM_OSLK			BIT(3)

Does changing this affect existing userspace? Previosuly it could read
OSLAR_EL1 as 0, whereas now that should be rejected.

That might be fine, and if so, it would be good to call that out in the commit
message.

How about:

	if ((val ^ rd->val) & ~SYS_OSLSR_OSLK)
		return -EINVAL;

... so that we don't need to hard-code the expected value here, and can more
easily change it in future?

As above, I have a slight concern that this could adversely affect existing
userspace, but I can also believe that's fine.

Thanks,
Mark.
