I don't really get the purpose of two options, I think that's quite confusing. Should \
the first one either be dropped at all or called something with "force"? I guess the \
idea is to fail if pointer auth isn't available, but the option is supplied?

Or maybe have one option with parameters?
--ptrauth[,=enable,=disable]

This is no longer true, I guess?

Cheers,
Andre.
