[PATCH 10/9] arm64: cpufeature: Detect CPU RAS Extensions

From: Xie XiuQi <xiexiuqi at huawei.com>

ARM's v8.2 Extensions add support for  Reliability, Availability and
Serviceability (RAS). On CPUs with these extensions system software
can use additional barriers to isolate errors and determine if faults
are pending.

Add cpufeature detection and a barrier in the context-switch code.
There is no need to use alternatives for this as CPUs that don't
support this feature will treat the instruction as a nop.

Platform level RAS support may require additional firmware support.

Now that SError is unmasked when __switch_to() is run, we can add an
ESB to isolate any pending faults to the affected process.

+	  (RAS) Extensions, part of ARMv8.2 are able to track faults and
+	  errors, classify them and report them to software.

+	  classification from a new set of registers.
+
+	  Selecting this feature will allow the kernel to use these barriers
+	  and access the new registers if the system supports the extension.
+	  Platform RAS features may additionally depend on firmware support.
