arm64: cpufeatures: Restrict NV support to FEAT_NV2
To anyone who has played with FEAT_NV, it is obvious that the level of performance is rather low due to the trap amplification that it imposes on the host hypervisor. FEAT_NV2 solves a number of the problems that FEAT_NV had. It also turns out that all the existing hardware that has FEAT_NV also has FEAT_NV2. Finally, it is now allowed by the architecture to build FEAT_NV2 *only* (as denoted by ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1.NV_frac), which effectively seals the fate of FEAT_NV. Restrict the NV support to NV2, and be done with it. Nobody will cry over the old crap. NV_frac will eventually be supported once the intrastructure is ready.
