At the moment we run through the arm64_features capability list for
each CPU and set the capability if one of the CPU supports it. This
could be problematic in a heterogeneous system with differing capabilities.
Delay the CPU feature checks until all the enabled CPUs are up(i.e,
smp_cpus_done(), so that we can make better decisions based on the
overall system capability. Once we decide and advertise the capabilities
the alternatives can be applied. From this state, we cannot roll back
a feature to disabled based on the values from a new hotplugged CPU,
due to the runtime patching and other reasons. So, for all new CPUs,
we need to make sure that they have the established system capabilities.
Failing which, we bring the CPU down, preventing it from turning online.
Once the capabilities are decided, any new CPU booting up goes through
verification to ensure that it has all the enabled capabilities and also
invokes the respective enable() method on the CPU.
The CPU errata checks are not delayed and is still executed per-CPU
to detect the respective capabilities. If we ever come across a non-errata
capability that needs to be checked on each-CPU, we could introduce them via
a new capability table(or introduce a flag), which can be processed per CPU.
The next patch will make the feature checks use the system wide
safe value of a feature register.
NOTE: The enable() methods associated with the capability is scheduled
on all the CPUs (which is the only use case at the moment). If we need
a different type of 'enable()' which only needs to be run once on any CPU,
we should be able to handle that when needed.

1) update_cpu_capabilities
=> Runs through the given list and updates the system

2) enable_cpu_capabilities

This patch adds an infrastructure to keep track of the CPU feature
registers on the system. For each register, the infrastructure keeps
track of the system wide safe value of the feature bits. Also, tracks
the which fields of a register should be matched strictly across all
the CPUs on the system for the SANITY check infrastructure.
The feature bits are classified into following 3 types depending on
the implication of the possible values. This information is used to
decide the safe value for a feature.
LOWER_SAFE - The smaller value is safer
HIGHER_SAFE - The bigger value is safer
EXACT - We can't decide between the two, so a predefined safe_value is used.
This infrastructure will be later used to make better decisions for:
- Kernel features (e.g, KVM, Debug)
- SANITY Check
- CPU capability
- ELF HWCAP
- Exposing CPU Feature register to userspace.
