Nit, maybe:
"Case (b) is not permitted for any errata workaround that cannot be
activated if the kernel has finished booting and has not already enabled
it."

All my suggestions in this patch are rewordings of comments, so they're
not vital, and anyway you may disagree that they make the meaning
clearer. So I don't think they're essential.
For the actual code

Nit: I find this a bit hard to follow. Maybe reordering things a bit
would help but putting the rule (the precise bit) first, and the
rationale (necessarily more vague) afterward:
"Two capability type flag bits are defined to indicate whether each kind
of conflict can be tolerated:
ARM64_CPUCAP_OPTIONAL_FOR_LATE_CPU - Case (a) is allowed
ARM64_CPUCAP_PERMITTED_FOR_LATE_CPU - Case (b) is allowed."

Similarly "Case (a) is not permitted for a capability that the system
requires all CPUs to have in order for the capability to be enabled.
This is typical for capabilities that represent enhanced functionality."

and
"Case (b) is not permitted for a capability that the system must enable
during boot if any CPU in the system requires it in order to run safely.
This is typical for erratum workarounds that cannot be enabled after the
corresponding capability is finalised.
In some non-typical cases, either both (a) and (b), or neither, should
be permitted. This can be described by including neither or both flags
in the capability's type field."

Can we around using the word "feature" to describe errata here?
Maybe "CPU errata workarounds that need to be enabled at boot time if
one or more CPUs in the system requires the workaround. When one of
these workaround capabilities has been enabled, it is safe to allow any
CPU to boot that does not require the workaround."

"hasn't enabled it, although the feature will not be used by Linux
in this case. If the system has enabled this feature already then every
late CPU must have it."
