Come to think of it, should this be
system_supports_address_auth() _&&_ system_supports_generic_auth()?

It won't make a functional difference today though, since today
kvm_vcpu_enable_ptrauth() won't set KVM_ARM64_GUEST_HAS_PTRAUTH without
system_supports_address_auth() and system_supports_generic_auth() both
true.

With || here, we won't have to change this if supporting the two auth
types independently in the future though.

Either way, my Reviewed-by stands.

Cheers
