Mark Brown a75ad2fc76 arm64: Filter out SME hwcaps when FEAT_SME isn't implemented
We have a number of hwcaps for various SME subfeatures enumerated via
ID_AA64SMFR0_EL1. Currently we advertise these without cross checking
against the main SME feature, advertised in ID_AA64PFR1_EL1.SME which
means that if the two are out of sync userspace can see a confusing
situation where SME subfeatures are advertised without the base SME
hwcap. This can be readily triggered by using the arm64.nosme override
which only masks out ID_AA64PFR1_EL1.SME, and there have also been
reports of VMMs which do the same thing.

Fix this as we did previously for SVE in 064737920b ("arm64: Filter
out SVE hwcaps when FEAT_SVE isn't implemented") by filtering out the
SME subfeature hwcaps when FEAT_SME is not present.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
