Nit: The comment above __system_matches_cap() still mentions
cpus_have_const_cap():
/*
* This helper function is used in a narrow window when,
* - The system wide safe registers are set with all the SMP CPUs and,
* - The SYSTEM_FEATURE system_cpucaps may not have been set.
* In all other cases cpus_have_{const_}cap() should be used.
