[Xen-devel] [PATCH v5 2/7] xen/arm: cpufeature: Provide an helper to check if a capability is supported

[Julien Grall <julien.grall@xxxxxxx>]

The CPU capabilities will be set depending on the value found in the CPU
registers. This patch provides a generic to go through a set of capabilities
and find which one should be enabled.

The parameter "info" is used to display the kind of capability updated (e.g
workaround, feature...).
