static inline bool is_kernel_in_hyp_mode(void)
{
return read_sysreg(CurrentEL) == CurrentEL_EL2;
}

I think it's more intuitive to use "switch (read_sysreg(CurrentEL))".

On second thought, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. The user need
to have capable() first. Then the address of the perpcu memory is not static,
the memory is dynamically allocated, exposing it is no different than exposing sp.
