...
check_cpu_capabilities runs through a given list of caps and
checks if the system has the cap, updates the system capability
bitmap and also runs any enable() methods associated with them.
All of this is not quite obvious from the name 'check'. This
patch splits the check_cpu_capabilities into two parts :
1) update_cpu_capabilities
=> Runs through the given list and updates the system
wide capability map.
2) enable_cpu_capabilities
=> Runs through the given list and invokes enable() (if any)
for the caps enabled on the system.

This patch implements Cavium ThunderX erratum 23154.
The gicv3 of ThunderX requires a modified version for reading the IAR
status to ensure data synchronization. Since this is in the fast-path
and called with each interrupt, runtime patching is used using jump
label patching for smallest overhead (no-op). This is the same
technique as used for tracepoints.

Register MIDR_EL1 is masked to get variant and revision fields, then
compared against midr_range_min and midr_range_max when checking
whether CPU is affected by any particular erratum. However, variant
and revision fields in MIDR_EL1 are separated by 16 bits, so the min
and max of midr range should be constructed accordingly, otherwise
the patch will not be applied when variant field is non-0.

[will: use MIDR_VARIANT_SHIFT to construct upper bound]

When running a compat (AArch32) userspace on Cortex-A53, a load at EL0
from a virtual address that matches the bottom 32 bits of the virtual
address used by a recent load at (AArch64) EL1 might return incorrect
data.
This patch works around the issue by writing to the contextidr_el1
register on the exception return path when returning to a 32-bit task.
This workaround is patched in at runtime based on the MIDR value of the
processor.

As we detect more architectural features at runtime, it makes
sense to reuse the existing framework whilst avoiding to call
a feature an erratum...
This patch extract the core capability parsing, moves it into
a new file (cpufeature.c), and let the CPU errata detection code
use it.

Not all of the errata we have workarounds for apply necessarily to all
SoCs, so people compiling a kernel for one very specific SoC may not
need to patch the kernel.
Introduce a new submenu in the "Platform selection" menu to allow
people to turn off certain bugs if they are not affected. By default
all of them are enabled.
Normal users or distribution kernels shouldn't bother to deselect any
bugs here, since the alternatives framework will take care of
patching them in only if needed.

After each CPU has been started, we iterate through a list of
CPU features or bugs to detect CPUs which need (or could benefit
from) kernel code patches.
For each feature/bug there is a function which checks if that
particular CPU is affected. We will later provide some more generic
functions for common things like testing for certain MIDR ranges.
We do this for every CPU to cover big.LITTLE systems properly as
well.
If a certain feature/bug has been detected, the capability bit will
be set, so that later the call to apply_alternatives() will trigger
the actual code patching.
