This is not an issue with this patch per se, but all FGT registers
prefix bits that trap on 0 with an n, e.g., HFGxTR_EL2:
nAMAIR2_EL1...nACCDATA_EL1, but not HCRX_EL2. I think that most
HCRX_EL2 bits trap on 0, except for TALLINT. It shouldn't be done in
this patch, but I'm wondering if it's worth the hassle to rename the
bits, or if there's too much existing code and in-flight patches that
it's more trouble than it's worth.

That said,
