Please reach out the mailing list related to the hypervisor you want to
modify to know whether they have handy helpers to access SP_usr/SP_svc.

If not, I would advice you to read the ARM ARM in order to know how to
access banked registers, particularly the section "Encoding and use of
Banked register transfer instructions".
