Is there any special semantic to "cc" on arm64? All I can find is that
in the general case it indicates that it is modifying the "flags" register.

Is your suggestion only for the PMR case? Or is it something that we
should add regardless of PMR?
The latter makes sense to me, but for the former, I fail to understand
why this should affect only PMR.

Sounds good to me, also depends on how I go with the next comment.

The conditions are probably the wrong ones. Or at least they don't
really warrant slapping names on them like I did.

I wanted to factor the assembly code by using helpers while avoiding to
add unnecessary instructions in said helpers. And since there are at
least two cases (one where we have to modify the current value of PMR
and others where we can just set an immediate value) I ended up with two
helpers, trying to put semantics onto them.

I'll try to get something cleaner.
