Thanks for pointing this out. I think mm_valid_pasid() is to check if SVA
is currently in action while mm_get_enqcmd_pasid() is to get the PASID for
"ENQCMD instruction execution". What prctl_enable_tagged_addr()
semantically requires here seems to be only checking if SVA is activated
or not regardless of whether EL0 can execute ENQCMD instruction; the
function wants to return error if SVA has been activated when LAM is to be
activated as they are mutually exclusive [1]. So, I think we should leave
it as-is. I am adding the author Kiryl as a reviewer for confirmation.

Since it is now possible with this patch to activate SVA without involving
EL0(for ENQCMD-like instructions), callers should be able to distinguish
between if SVA is activated and if EL0 can execute ENQCMD-like
instructions in addition to the SVA activation. mm_valid_pasid() is for
the former and mm_get_enqcmd_pasid() is for the latter. So, I think there
will be loss if we make the latter API serve for the former.

Or, I guess we could rename mm_valid_pasid() to be more specific like
mm_sva_activated() or mm_sva_in_use(). What do you think?

Thanks. Sashiko reported valid points [2] and I will handle them in the
meantime.
