James Morse 762dd597c7 arm64: cpufeature: Force HWCAP to be based on the sysreg visible to user-space
[ Upstream commit 237405ebef580a7352a52129b2465c117145eafa ]

arm64 advertises hardware features to user-space via HWCAPs, and by
emulating access to the CPUs id registers. The cpufeature code has a
sanitised system-wide view of an id register, and a sanitised user-space
view of an id register, where some features use their 'safe' value
instead of the hardware value.

It is currently possible for a HWCAP to be advertised where the user-space
view of the id register does not show the feature as supported.
Erratum workaround need to remove both the HWCAP, and the feature from
the user-space view of the id register. This involves duplicating the
code, and spreading it over cpufeature.c and cpu_errata.c.

Make the HWCAP code use the user-space view of id registers. This ensures
the values never diverge, and allows erratum workaround to remove HWCAP
by modifying the user-space view of the id register.

README

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.
