[PATCH v8 10/43] arm64: cpufeature: Add helper to test for CPU feature overrides

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb at kernel.org>

Add some helpers to extract and apply feature overrides to the bare
idreg values. This involves inspecting the value and mask of the
specific field that we are interested in, given that an override
value/mask pair might be invalid for one field but valid for another.

Then, wire up the new helper for the hVHE test - note that we can drop
the sysreg test here, as the override will be invalid when trying to
enable hVHE on non-VHE capable hardware.
