This patch uses the cpufeatures framework to determine common SVE
capabilities and vector lengths, and configures the runtime SVE
support code appropriately.
ZCR_ELx is not really a feature register, but it is convenient to
use it as a template for recording the maximum vector length
supported by a CPU, using the LEN field. This field is similar to
a feature field in that it is a contiguous bitfield for which we
want to determine the minimum system-wide value. This patch adds
ZCR as a pseudo-register in cpuinfo/cpufeatures, with appropriate
custom code to populate it. Finding the minimum supported value of
the LEN field is left to the cpufeatures framework in the usual
way.
The meaning of ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 is not architecturally defined yet,
so for now we just require it to be zero.
Note that much of this code is dormant and SVE still won't be used
yet, since system_supports_sve() remains hardwired to false.

It can be useful for JIT software to be aware of MIDR_EL1 and
REVIDR_EL1 to ascertain the presence of any core errata that could
affect code generation.
This patch exposes these registers through sysfs:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$ID/regs/identification/midr_el1
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$ID/regs/identification/revidr_el1
where $ID is the cpu number. For big.LITTLE systems, one can have a
mixture of cores (e.g. Cortex A53 and Cortex A57), thus all CPUs need
to be enumerated.
If the kernel does not have valid information to populate these entries
with, an empty string is returned to userspace.

ARMv8.2 adds a new feature register id_aa64mmfr2. This patch adds the
cpu feature boiler plate used by the actual features in later patches.

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.

Move the mixed endian support detection code to cpufeature.c
from cpuinfo.c. This also moves the update_cpu_features()
used by mixed endian detection code, which will get more
functionality.
Also moves the ID register field shifts to asm/sysreg.h,
where all the useful definitions will end up in later patches.

We don't currently check a number of registers exposed to AArch32 guests
(MVFR{0,1,2}_EL1 and ID_DFR0_EL1), despite the fact these describe
AArch32 feature support exposed to userspace and KVM guests similarly to
AArch64 registers which we do check. We do not expect these registers to
vary across a set of CPUs.
This patch adds said registers to the cpuinfo framework and sanity
checks. No sanity check failures have been observed on a current ARMv8
big.LITTLE platform (Juno).

While we currently expect self-hosted debug support to be identical
across CPUs, we don't currently sanity check this.
This patch adds logging of the ID_AA64DFR{0,1}_EL1 values and associated
sanity checking code.
It's not clear to me whether we need to check PMUVer, TraceVer, and
DebugVer, as we don't currently rely on these fields at all.

Several kernel subsystems need to know details about CPU system register
values, sometimes for CPUs other than that they are executing on. Rather
than hard-coding system register accesses and cross-calls for these
cases, this patch adds logic to record various system register values at
boot-time. This may be used for feature reporting, firmware bug
detection, etc.
Separate hooks are added for the boot and hotplug paths to enable
one-time intialisation and cold/warm boot value mismatch detection in
later patches.
