According the talk[1], because the architecture get updated, what used to be a
RES1 bit becomes a functinal bit. So we can define the name for these bits, this
also increase the readability.

Thanks, Eric for the suggestions:
- Rephrase the commit title in patch 1.
- Use the _BITULL().
- Delete the SCTLR_EL1_RES1 and unwind its definition into
INIT_SCTLR_EL1_MMU_OFF.

Shaoqin Huang (2):
  arm64: Use _BITULL() to define SCTLR_EL1 bit fields
  arm64: Define name for these bits used in SCTLR_EL1
