For cases where there is a mismatch in ARMv8.2-LVA support between CPUs we have to be careful in allowing secondary CPUs to boot if 52-bit virtual addresses have already been enabled on the boot CPU. This patch adds code to the secondary startup path. If the boot CPU has enabled 52-bit VAs then ID_AA64MMFR2_EL1 is checked to see if the secondary can also enable 52-bit support. If not, the secondary is prevented from booting and an error message is displayed indicating why. Technically this patch could be implemented using the cpufeature code when considering 52-bit userspace support. However, we employ low level checks here as the cpufeature code won't be able to run if we have mismatched 52-bit kernel va support.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
