FI, [21]
Fast Interrupts configuration enable bit. This bit can be used to reduce interrupt latency by
disabling implementation-defined performance features.
This bit is not implemented, RES0.
[20]
Reserved, RES0.
WXN, [19]
Write permission implies Execute Never (XN). This bit can be used to require all memory
regions with write permission to be treated as XN:
0 Regions with write permission are not forced to XN.
1 Regions with write permission are forced to XN.
The WXN bit is permitted to be cached in a TLB.

I, [12]
Instruction cache enable. This is an enable bit for instruction caches at EL2:
0 Instruction caches disabled at EL2. If HSCTLR.M is set to 0, instruction accesses from
stage 1 of the EL2 translation regime are to Normal memory, Outer Shareable, Inner
Non-cacheable, Outer Non-cacheable.
1 Instruction caches enabled at EL2. If HSCTLR.M is set to 0, instruction accesses from
stage 1 of the EL2 translation regime are to Normal memory, Outer Shareable, Inner
Write-Through, Outer Write-Through.
When this bit is 0, all EL2 Normal memory instruction accesses are Non-cacheable.
If this register is at the highest exception level implemented, field resets to 0. Otherwise, its
reset value is UNKNOWN.
