PAuth adds sign/verify controls to enable and disable groups of instructions in hardware for compatibility with libraries that do not implement PAuth. The kernel always enables them if it detects PAuth. Add a test that checks that each group of instructions is enabled, if the kernel reports PAuth as detected. Note: For groups, for the purpose of this patch, we intend instructions that use a certain key.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
