Add a new HWCAP to detect the Increased precision of Reciprocal Estimate
and Reciprocal Square Root Estimate feature (FEAT_RPRES), introduced in Armv8.7.

Also expose this to userspace in the ID_AA64ISAR2_EL1 feature register.

Since userspace can make use of the CNTVSS_EL0 instruction, expose
it via a HWCAP.

In preparation for late initialisation of the "sanitised" AArch32 register
state, move the AArch32 registers out of 'struct cpuinfo' and into their
own struct definition.

The GMID_EL1.BS field determines the number of tags accessed by the
LDGM/STGM instructions (EL1 and up), used by the kernel for copying or
zeroing page tags.

Taint the kernel if GMID_EL1.BS differs between CPUs but only of
CONFIG_ARM64_MTE is enabled.

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.
