This patch is part of the patch series to add support for ARMv8.5-A
extensions.
(https://developer.arm.com/products/architecture/cpu-architecture/a-profile/docs/ddi0596/a/a64-base-instructions-alphabetic-order/bti-branch-target-identification)
The Branch Target Identification instructions (BTI) are allocated to
existing HINT space, using HINT numbers 32, 34, 36, 38, such that
bits[7:6] of the instruction identify the compatibility of the BTI
instruction to different branches.
BTI {<targets>}
where <targets> one of the following, specifying which type of
indirection is allowed:
j : Can be a target of any BR Xn isntruction.
c : Can be a target of any BLR Xn and BR {X16|X17}.
jc: Can be a target of any free branch.
A BTI instruction without any <targets> is the strictest of all and
can not be a target of nay free branch.
