Since Armv9.6, FEAT_LSUI supplies the load/store instructions for
previleged level to access to access user memory without clearing
PSTATE.PAN bit.
This patchset support FEAT_LSUI and applies in futex atomic operation
where can replace from ldxr/stlxr pair implmentation with clearing
PSTATE.PAN bit to correspondant load/store unprevileged atomic operation
without clearing PSTATE.PAN bit.
Patch Sequences
================
Patch #1 adds cpufeature for FEAT_LSUI
Patch #2 expose FEAT_LSUI to guest
Patch #3 adds Kconfig for FEAT_LSUI
Patch #4 refactor former futex atomic-op implmentation with ll/sc &
clearing PSTATE.PAN
Patch #5 support futext atomic-op with FEAT_LSUI
