[PATCH v2 1/2] arm64: cpufeature: Relocate PAN emulation report

The PAN emulation notification was only happening for non-boot CPUs
if CPU capabilities had already been configured. This seems to be the
wrong place, as it's system-wide and isn't attached to capabilities,
so its reporting didn't normally happen. Instead, report it once from
the boot CPU.
Before (missing PAN emulation report):
SMP: Total of 4 processors activated.
CPU features: detected feature: 32-bit EL0 Support
CPU features: detected feature: Kernel page table isolation (KPTI)
CPU: All CPU(s) started at EL2
After:
SMP: Total of 4 processors activated.
CPU features: detected feature: 32-bit EL0 Support
CPU features: detected feature: Kernel page table isolation (KPTI)
CPU features: emulated: Privileged Access Never (PAN) using TTBR0_EL1 switching
CPU: All CPU(s) started at EL2
