arm64: cpufeature: Schedule enable() calls instead of calling them via IPI
The enable() call for a cpufeature/errata is called using on_each_cpu(). This issues a cross-call IPI to get the work done. Implicitly, this stashes the running PSTATE in SPSR when the CPU receives the IPI, and restores it when we return. This means an enable() call can never modify PSTATE. To allow PAN to do this, change the on_each_cpu() call to use stop_machine(). This schedules the work on each CPU which allows us to modify PSTATE. This involves changing the protype of all the enable() functions. enable_cpu_capabilities() is called during boot and enables the feature on all online CPUs. This path now uses stop_machine(). CPU features for hotplug'd CPUs are enabled by verify_local_cpu_features() which only acts on the local CPU, and can already modify the running PSTATE as it is called from secondary_start_kernel().
