After the vcpu's SVE configuration is finalized, further attempts to write this register will fail with EPERM. +arm64 bitmap feature firmware pseudo-registers have the following bit pattern:: + + 0x6030 0000 0016 <regno:16> + +The bitmap feature firmware registers exposes the hypercall services that +are available for userspace to configure. The set bits corresponds to the +services that are available for the guests to access. By default, KVM +sets all the supported bits during VM initialization.
