arm64: capabilities: Change scope of VHE to Boot CPU feature
[ Upstream commit 830dcc9f9a7cd26a812522a26efaacf7df6fc365 ] We expect all CPUs to be running at the same EL inside the kernel with or without VHE enabled and we have strict checks to ensure that any mismatch triggers a kernel panic. If VHE is enabled, we use the feature based on the boot CPU and all other CPUs should follow. This makes it a perfect candidate for a capability based on the boot CPU, which should be matched by all the CPUs (both when is ON and OFF). This saves us some not-so-pretty hooks and special code, just for verifying the conflict. The patch also makes the VHE capability entry depend on CONFIG_ARM64_VHE.
