[RFC PATCH 1/3] arm64: mm: Support Common Not Private translations

Common Not Private (CNP) is a feature of ARMv8.2 extension which
allows translation table entries to be shared between different PEs in
the same inner shareable domain, so the hardware can use this fact to
optimise the caching of such entries in the TLB.

CNP occupies one bit in TTBRx_ELy and VTTBR_EL2, which advertises to
the hardware that the translation table entries pointed to by this
TTBR are the same as every PE in the same inner shareable domain for
which the equivalent TTBR also has CNP bit set. In case CNP bit is set
but TTBR does not point at the same translation table entries, then
the system is mis-configured, so the results of translations are
UNPREDICTABLE.

This patch adds support for Common Not Private translations on
different exceptions levels:

(1) For EL0 there are a few cases we need to care of changes in
    TTBR0_EL1:
    - a switch to idmap
    - software emulated PAN
    in these cases we make sure that CNP is set for non-zero ASIDs
    only.

(2) For EL1 we postpone setting CNP till all cpus are up and rely on
    cpufeature framework to 1) patch the code which is sensitive to
    CNP and 2) update TTBR1_EL1 with CNP bit set. The only case where
    TTBR1_EL1 can be reprogrammed is hibirnation, so the code there is
    changed to save raw TTBR1_EL1 and blindly restore it on resume.
