Oh - and when I started looking at it, I immediately remembered why I
didn't want to use alternatives originally.
The alternatives are finalized much too early for this. By the time
the dcache code works, the alternatives have already been applied.
I guess all the arm64 alternative callbacks are basically finalized
very early, basically when the CPU models etc have been setup.
We could do a "late alternatives", I guess, but now it's even more
infrastructure just for the constants.
