Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Low] The EL2 GCS registers are added out of order in `el2_regs[]`, breaking the sysreg encoding sort order.

KVM: selftests: arm64: Add GCS registers to get-reg-list

This commit adds the new GCS registers (GCSCR_ELx, GCSCRE0_EL1, and GCSPR_ELx)
to the list of registers validated by the get-reg-list KVM selftest on arm64.

[Severity: Low]
Are these registers out of order with respect to their sysreg encoding?

The register arrays in get-reg-list are canonically sorted by their (op0, op1,
CRn, CRm, op2) encoding to match KVM's native ordering. Since GCSPR_EL2 has
op2=1 and GCSCR_EL2 has op2=0, should GCSCR_EL2 come before GCSPR_EL2, similar
to how the EL1 variants were added earlier in base_regs[]?
