[PATCH v2 10/20] arm64: gpr-num: add __GPR_NUM() helper

[Mark Rutland]

The gpr-num infrastructure requires users to concatenate the register
name with a long prefix in order to get a symbol that evaluates to a
compile-time constant. Doing this manually is error-prone and painful to
read.

Add a new __GPR_NUM() helper which wraps the concatenation.

For the moment I've left existing open-coded concatenation as-is. In
particular, the DEFINE_MRS_S() and DEFINE_MSR_S() macros have awkward
stringification requirements and would require invasive changes that
outweigh the benefit. I have plans to rework those in the near future to
remove the need to use gpr-num values.
