ARM: 8663/1: wire up HWCAP/HWCAP2 feature bits to the CPU modalias

Wire up the generic support for exposing CPU feature bits via the
modalias in /sys/device/system/cpu. This allows udev to automatically
load modules for things like crypto algorithms that are implemented
using optional instructions.

Since it is non-trivial to transparantly support both HWCAP and HWCAP2
capabilities in the cpu_feature() macro (which allows a module's hwcap
dependency and init routine to be declared using a single invocation of
module_cpu_feature_match()), support only HWCAP2 for now, which covers
the capabilities that are most likely to be useful in this manner.
Module dependencies on HWCAP will need to be declared explicitly via a
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(cpu, ...) declaration.

* Due to the fact that ELF_HWCAP is a 32-bit type on ARM, and given the number
* of optional CPU features it defines, ARM's CPU hardware capability bits have
* been distributed over separate elf_hwcap and elf_hwcap2 variables, each of
* which covers a subset of the available CPU features.
*
* Currently, only a few of those are suitable for automatic module loading
* (which is the primary use case of this facility) and those happen to be all
* covered by HWCAP2. So let's only cover those via the cpu_feature()
* convenience macro for now (which is used by module_cpu_feature_match()).
* However, all capabilities are exposed via the modalias, and can be matched
* using an explicit MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() that uses __hwcap_feature() directly.
