[PATCH 1/2] arm64: alternative: Introduce feature for GICv3 CPU interface

[Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@xxxxxxx>]

Add a new item to the feature set (ARM64_HAS_SYSREG_GIC_CPUIF)
to indicate that we have a system register GIC CPU interface

This will help KVM switching to alternative instruction patching.
