Hi, Morton
After revisiting the code logic, I realized that if CONFIG_ARM64_GCS is enabled,
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_USER_SHADOW_STACK will always be enabled as well. Therefore,
it seems unnecessary to add separate VM_SHADOW_STACK support specifically for
CONFIG_ARM64_GCS at this stage.

I will make sure to review future patches more carefully to avoid such oversights.

Wang
