Subject: [PATCH v9 14/26] arm64: alternative: Allow alternative status checking per cpufeature

In preparation for the application of alternatives at different points
during the boot process, provide the possibility to check whether
alternatives for a feature of interest was already applied instead of
having a global boolean for all alternatives.

Make VHE enablement code check for the VHE feature instead of considering
all alternatives.
