Subject: [PATCH v5 03/27] arm64: alternative: Apply alternatives early in boot process

From: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@...aro.org>

Currently alternatives are applied very late in the boot process (and
a long time after we enable scheduling). Some alternative sequences,
such as those that alter the way CPU context is stored, must be applied
much earlier in the boot sequence.

Introduce apply_boot_alternatives() to allow some alternatives to be
applied immediately after we detect the CPU features of the boot CPU.

Signed-off-by: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@...aro.org>
[julien.thierry@....com: rename to fit new cpufeature framework better,
			 apply BOOT_SCOPE feature early in boot]
