Here's some feedback on the docs:

1. Typo: "feild" should be "field".

2. The patch hunk ends with the context line "For more information about
@acronym{FPMR}...". That sentence belongs to the FPMR section. Your new
@subsubsection sits above it, so the FPMR reference would now land at
the end of the POE section. Check that the new section goes after that
paragraph, not before it.

3. Wording of the first paragraph:
    - "debugging the AArch64 architecture" reads oddly. "debugging an
AArch64 target" is more usual.
    - Drop the "then" in "is available, then @value{GDBN} will".
    - "when displayed using" is a dangling modifier. Try "interprets the
permissions of each field in @code{por_el0} when displaying it with the
@code{info registers} command."

4. Examples:
    - Column alignment is inconsistent. por_el0 0x00...07 [ P0=rwx ]
uses single spaces, while por_p1        0x7        rwx is padded like
real info registers output. Use the same style in both.
    - The last @smallexample shows info registers por with no output.
Either show the output, or fold the command into the prose and drop the
block.

5. Markup:
    - Use @samp{por} or @code{por} when you name the group, so it's
clear it's a literal group name.
    - You could also write @code{set $por_p1 = 0x7} inline in the prose,
but the examples are fine as they are.

With those fixed, this is OK.
