arm64: kvm: Use cpus_have_final_cap() explicitly
Much of the arm64 KVM code uses cpus_have_const_cap() to check for cpucaps, but this is unnecessary and it would be preferable to use cpus_have_final_cap(). For historical reasons, cpus_have_const_cap() is more complicated than it needs to be. Before cpucaps are finalized, it will perform a bitmap test of the system_cpucaps bitmap, and once cpucaps are finalized it will use an alternative branch. This used to be necessary to handle some race conditions in the window between cpucap detection and the subsequent patching of alternatives and static branches, where different branches could be out-of-sync with one another (or w.r.t. alternative sequences). Now that we use alternative branches instead of static branches, these are all patched atomically w.r.t. one another, and there are only a handful of cases that need special care in the window between cpucap detection and alternative patching. Due to the above, it would be nice to remove cpus_have_const_cap(), and migrate callers over to alternative_has_cap_*(), cpus_have_final_cap(), or cpus_have_cap() depending on when their requirements. This will remove redundant instructions and improve code generation, and will make it easier to determine how each callsite will behave before, during, and after alternative patching. KVM is initialized after cpucaps have been finalized and alternatives have been patched. Since commit: d86de40decaa14e6 ("arm64: cpufeature: upgrade hyp caps to final") ... use of cpus_have_const_cap() in hyp code is automatically converted to use cpus_have_final_cap(): | static __always_inline bool cpus_have_const_cap(int num) | { | if (is_hyp_code()) | return cpus_have_final_cap(num); | else if (system_capabilities_finalized()) | return __cpus_have_const_cap(num); | else | return cpus_have_cap(num); | } Thus, converting hyp code to use cpus_have_final_cap() directly will not result in any functional change. Non-hyp KVM code is also not executed until cpucaps have been finalized, and it would be preferable to extent the same treatment to this code and use cpus_have_final_cap() directly. This patch converts instances of cpus_have_const_cap() in KVM-only code over to cpus_have_final_cap(). As all of this code runs after cpucaps have been finalized, there should be no functional change as a result of this patch, but the redundant instructions generated by cpus_have_const_cap() will be removed from the non-hyp KVM code.
