[PATCH v2 16/20] arm64: Handle shared capability entries

Some capabilities have different criteria for detection and associated
actions based on the matching criteria, even though they all share the
same capability bit. So far we have used multiple entries with the same
capability bit to handle this. This is prone to errors, as the
cpu_enable is invoked for each entry, irrespective of whether the
detection rule applies to the CPU or not. And also this complicates
other helpers, e.g, __this_cpu_has_cap.

This patch adds a wrapper entry to cover all the possible variations
of a capability and ensures :
 1) The capabilitiy is set when at least one of the entry detects
 2) Action is only taken for the entries that detects.

This avoids explicit checks in the call backs. The only constraint
here is that, all the entries should have the same "type".
