Instead of duplicating the code Arm uses, we just need an errno check
function, preferably one that takes the register as an input, so we
can check for specific errnos for specific registers.

I think we should only do the get/set tests on present, blessed list
registers, since if it's a new register we don't know its capabilities.

So, instead of

  for_each_reg(i) {
     /* get/set tests */
  }

we do
  
  for_each_present_blessed_reg(i) {
     /* get/set tests */
  }

where we have

 #define for_each_present_blessed_reg(i) \
     for ((i) = 0; (i) < blessed_n; ++(i)) \
         if (find_reg(reg_list->reg, reg_list->n, blessed_reg[i]))


Changing run_test() to work this way should be a separate patch.
