Applied to arm64 (for-next/cpufeature), thanks!

[1/3] arm64/cpufeature: Pull out helper for CPUID register definitions
      https://git.kernel.org/arm64/c/876e3c8efe79
[2/3] arm64/cpufeature: Consistently use symbolic constants for min_field_value
      https://git.kernel.org/arm64/c/21642da214a9
[3/3] arm64/cpufeature: Use helper macro to specify ID register for capabilites
      https://git.kernel.org/arm64/c/863da0bdb17b
