The icache_policy_str[] definition causes a warning when extra
warning flags are enabled:

arch/arm64/kernel/cpuinfo.c:38:26: warning: initialized field overwritten [-Woverride-init]
   38 |  [ICACHE_POLICY_VIPT]  = "VIPT",
      |                          ^~~~~~

arch/arm64/kernel/cpuinfo.c:40:27: note: (near initialization for 'icache_policy_str[0]')

There is no real need for the default initializer here, as printing a
NULL string is harmless. Rewrite the logic to have an explicit
reserved value for the only one that uses the default value.

This partially reverts the commit that removed ICACHE_POLICY_AIVIVT.

<title>arm64/cpuinfo: Define HWCAP name arrays per their actual bit definitions</title>

<id>4e56de82d4ec9d98ffdc9e0387d8fdecbf496226</id>
<content type='text'>
HWCAP name arrays (hwcap_str, compat_hwcap_str, compat_hwcap2_str) that are
scanned for /proc/cpuinfo are detached from their bit definitions making it
vulnerable and difficult to correlate. It is also bit problematic because
during /proc/cpuinfo dump these arrays get traversed sequentially assuming
they reflect and match actual HWCAP bit sequence, to test various features
for a given CPU. This redefines name arrays per their HWCAP bit definitions
. It also warns after detecting any feature which is not expected on arm64.

Add the cpufeature and hwcap entries to detect the presence of MTE. Any
secondary CPU not supporting the feature, if detected on the boot CPU,
will be parked.

Add the minimum SCTLR_EL1 and HCR_EL2 bits for enabling MTE. The Normal
Tagged memory type is configured in MAIR_EL1 before the MMU is enabled
in order to avoid disrupting other CPUs in the CnP domain.

the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary

While MTE is not supported in the upstream kernel yet, add a comment
that HWCAP2_MTE as (1 &lt;&lt; 18) is reserved. Glibc makes use of it for the
