arm64: cpufeature: Fix handling of CTR_EL0.IDC field
CTR_EL0.IDC reports the data cache clean requirements for instruction to data coherence. However, if the field is 0, we need to check the CLIDR_EL1 fields to detect the status of the feature. Currently we don't do this and generate a warning with tainting the kernel, when there is a mismatch in the field among the CPUs. Also the userspace doesn't have a reliable way to check the CLIDR_EL1 register to check the status. This patch fixes the problem by checking the CLIDR_EL1 fields, when (CTR_EL0.IDC == 0) and updates the kernel's copy of the CTR_EL0 for the CPU with the actual status of the feature. This would allow the sanity check infrastructure to do the proper checking of the fields and also allow the CTR_EL0 emulation code to supply the real status of the feature. Now, if a CPU has raw CTR_EL0.IDC == 0 and effective IDC == 1 (with overall system wide IDC == 1), we need to expose the real value to the user. So, we trap CTR_EL0 access on the CPU which reports incorrect CTR_EL0.IDC.
