Subject: [RFC PATCH 15/16] arm64: Enable kpkeys_hardened_pgtables support

kpkeys_hardened_pgtables should be enabled as early as possible (if
selected). It does however require kpkeys being available, which
means on arm64 POE being detected and enabled. POE is a boot
feature, so calling kpkeys_hardened_pgtables_enable() just after
setup_boot_cpu_features() in smp_prepare_boot_cpu() is the best we
can do.

With that done, all the bits are in place and we can advertise
support for kpkeys_hardened_pgtables by selecting
ARCH_HAS_KPKEYS_HARDENED_PGTABLES if ARM64_POE is enabled.
