In commit06a916feca("arm64: Expose SVE2 features for userspace"), new hwcaps are added that are detected via fields in the SVE-specific ID register ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1. In order to check compatibility of secondary cpus with the hwcaps established at boot, the cpufeatures code uses __read_sysreg_by_encoding() to read this ID register based on the sys_reg field of the arm64_elf_hwcaps[] table. This leads to a kernel splat if an hwcap uses an ID register that __read_sysreg_by_encoding() doesn't explicitly handle, as now happens when exercising cpu hotplug on an SVE2-capable platform. So fix it by adding the required case in there.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
