If the arm64 erratum caps are not linear, then it might be difficult or
probably even irrelevant to enforce such errata guard rails. But what I
originally thought was, if arm64 erratums applicable to TRBE are linear
in nature, then its range could have been validated while picking each
of them for trbe_errata_cpucaps[]. But if the arm64 range is not linear
for TRBE, then there might be some non-TRBE erratums scattered inside.

As discussed earlier, if no such range could be figured out, this would
not be necessary as well.
