In commit 06a916fe ("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.
