FEAT_SPE_EFT (optional from Armv9.4) adds mask bits for the existing load, store and branch filters. It also adds two new filter bits for SIMD and floating point with their own associated mask bits. The current filters only allow OR filtering on samples that are load OR store etc, and the new mask bits allow setting part of the filter to an AND, for example filtering samples that are store AND SIMD. With mask bits set to 0, the OR behavior is preserved, so the unless any masks are explicitly set old filters will behave the same. Add them all and make them behave the same way as existing format bits, hidden and return EOPNOTSUPP if set when the feature doesn't exist.

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 reStructuredText 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.
