It may be worth mentioning the document number and may be the link
for RHI spec.

e.g., The Realm Host Interface specification Arm DEN00148 defines ...

Do we need to 0 out the other GPRs for RES0 arguments ?

Same here, especially gprs[] could be overwritten by the results from
the Host for the previous call.

minor nit: This patterns keep repeating. May be we could define a macro 
or something to make it cleaner ?

minor nit: Could this be:

RHI_HOSTCONF_FEATURE_GET_IPA_CHANGE_ALIGNMENT	BIT(0)

to indicate this applies to the RHI_HOSTCONF_FEATURES output ?
