arm64: cpufeature: upgrade hyp caps to final
We finalize caps before initializing kvm hyp code, and any use of cpus_have_const_cap() in kvm hyp code generates redundant and potentially unsound code to read the cpu_hwcaps array. A number of helper functions used in both hyp context and regular kernel context use cpus_have_const_cap(), as some regular kernel code runs before the capabilities are finalized. It's tedious and error-prone to write separate copies of these for hyp and non-hyp code. So that we can avoid the redundant code, let's automatically upgrade cpus_have_const_cap() to cpus_have_final_cap() when used in hyp context. With this change, there's never a reason to access to cpu_hwcaps array from hyp code, and we don't need to create an NVHE alias for this. This should have no effect on non-hyp code.
