It seems like we're a bit inconsistent here, for example tpidr2_el0 from
FEAT_SME is not guarded. Not guarding means that we can have left #ifdef's in
the C files and since system_supports_poe() checks if CONFIG_ARM64_POE is
enabled, most of the code should be optimised away anyway. So unless there's a
good reason I think it makes sense to stay this way.

Yup, the default index 0, needs to allow everything.
