arm64: Fixup user features at boot time
For ARM64_WORKAROUND_2658417, we use a cpu_enable() callback to hide the ID_AA64ISAR1_EL1.BF16 ID register field. This is a little awkward as CPUs may attempt to apply the workaround concurrently, requiring that we protect the bulk of the callback with a raw_spinlock, and requiring some pointless work every time a CPU is subsequently hotplugged in. This patch makes this a little simpler by handling the masking once at boot time. A new user_feature_fixup() function is called at the start of setup_user_features() to mask the feature, matching the style of elf_hwcap_fixup(). The ARM64_WORKAROUND_2658417 cpucap is added to cpucap_is_possible() so that code can be elided entirely when this is not possible. Note that the ARM64_WORKAROUND_2658417 capability is matched with ERRATA_MIDR_RANGE(), which implicitly gives the capability a ARM64_CPUCAP_LOCAL_CPU_ERRATUM type, which forbids the late onlining of a CPU with the erratum if the erratum was not present at boot time. Therefore this patch doesn't change the behaviour for late onlining.
