Or maybe change the above ones from 'has the ... cap' to just 'has ...',
like this one.

Now that I'm trying to consider heterogeneous systems, I'm wondering why
harden BP isn't checked with this_cpu_has_cap() like harden EL2 vectors.
I'm also wondering if it's even possible for CPUs to come up without all
of them having harden EL2 vectors if the boot CPU has it. Won't
verify_local_cpu_errata_workarounds() require it? I'm probably just
getting lost in all the capability stuff...

What happened to this_cpu_has_cap()? Did we switch because this is only
running on the boot CPU?
