Mark Rutland 611a7bc74e arm64: docs: describe ELF hwcaps
We don't document our ELF hwcaps, leaving developers to interpret them
according to hearsay, guesswork, or (in exceptional cases) inspection of
the current kernel code.

This is less than optimal, and it would be far better if we had some
definitive description of each of the ELF hwcaps that developers could
refer to.

This patch adds a document describing the (native) arm64 ELF hwcaps.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
