In 155433cb36 ("arm64: cache: Remove support for ASID-tagged VIVT
I-caches") we removed all the support fir AIVIVT cache types and renamed
all references to the field to say "unknown" since support for AIVIVT
caches was removed from the architecture. Some confusion has resulted since
the corresponding change to the architecture left the value named as
AIVIVT but documented it as reserved in v8, refactor the code so we don't
define the constant instead. This will help with automatic generation of
this register field since it means we care less about the correspondence
with the ARM.
No functional change, the value displayed to userspace is unchanged.

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.
