We've dealt with that kind of trivial conflicts in the past without
requiring topic branches (cpucaps.h has always been a popular place),
and I always assumed that this was acceptable. I must have
misunderstood something here.

Next time, I'll direct the architecture-specific code via the arm64
tree directly.
