Robert,

I probably didn't express myself very well, because this not what I had
in mind, sorry...

I think this is very much overdesigned for something that should be very
simple. Why can't you have a simple:

if (cpu_have_feature(ARM64_WORKAROUND_CAVIUM_23154))
static_key_slow_inc(&is_cavium_thunderx);

No need for a cpu_cap field, no need to special-case feature 0, and it
keeps the code fairly readable. You can even hide it in a
gic_enable_cpu_quirks() function.

Thanks,

M.
