This allows userspace to print out any current page table entries, including kernel (TTBR1) entries. Exposing kernel mappings like this could pose a security risk, so don't print out page table information on EL0 faults. (But still print it out for EL1 faults.) This also follows the same behaviour as x86, printing out page table entries on kernel mode faults but not user mode faults.
