This looks weird to me. All crypto extensionsinstructions except CRC
operate strictly on FP/ASIMD registers, and so support for FP/ASIMD is
implied by having HWCAP_AES. In other words, I think it makes more
sense to sanity check that the info registers are consistent with each
other in core code than modifying each user (which for HWCAP_xxx
includes userland) to double check that the world is sane.
