[PATCH] arm64/cpufeature: don't use mutex in bringup path

Currently, cpus_set_cap() calls static_branch_enable_cpuslocked(), which
must take the jump_label mutex.
We call cpus_set_cap() in the secondary bringup path, from the idle
thread where interrupts are disabled. Taking a mutex in this path "is a
NONO" regardless of whether it's contended, and something we must avoid.
Additionally, the secondary CPU doesn't hold the percpu rwsem (as this
is held by the primary CPU), so this triggers a lockdep splat.
This patch fixes both issues by moving the static_key poking from
cpus_set_cap() into enable_cpu_capabilities(). This means that there is
a period between detecting an erratum and cpus_have_const_cap(erratum)
being true, but largely this is fine. Features are only enabled later
regardless, and most errata workarounds are best-effort.
This rework means that we can remove the *_cpuslocked() helpers added in
commit d54bb72551b999dd ("arm64/cpufeature: Use
static_branch_enable_cpuslocked()").
Fixes: efd9e03facd075f5 ("arm64: Use static keys for CPU features")

I'm not sure what to do about ARM64_WORKAROUND_CAVIUM_23154.
This patch will defer enabling the workaround until all CPUs are up, and I
can't see a good way of having the workaround on by default, then subsequently
disabled if no CPUs are affected.
Thanks,
Mark
