Mark Rutland 127161aaf0 arm64: add runtime system sanity checks 
Unexpected variation in certain system register values across CPUs is an
indicator of potential problems with a system. The kernel expects CPUs
to be mostly identical in terms of supported features, even in systems
with heterogeneous CPUs, with uniform instruction set support being
critical for the correct operation of userspace.

To help detect issues early where hardware violates the expectations of
the kernel, this patch adds simple runtime sanity checks on important ID
registers in the bring up path of each CPU.

Where CPUs are fundamentally mismatched, set TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC.
Given that the kernel assumes CPUs are identical feature wise, let's not
pretend that we expect such configurations to work. Supporting such
configurations would require massive rework, and hopefully they will
never exist.
