[PATCH v3 1/6] arm64: cpufeature: Allow early detect of specific features

[Julien Thierry]

From: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@xxxxxxxxxx>

Currently it is not possible to detect features of the boot CPU
until the other CPUs have been brought up.

This prevents us from reacting to features of the boot CPU until
fairly late in the boot process. To solve this we allow a subset
of features (that are likely to be common to all clusters) to be
detected based on the boot CPU alone.

			 duplicates between early features and normal
			 features]
