This will be used to know if a feature, which Xen cares, is available accross
all the CPUs.

This code is a light version of arch/arm64/kernel/cpufeature.c from
Linux v4.6-rc3.

This code is based on Linux where the 2 functions were already static 
inline.

I agree that cpus_set_cap won't be called often (mostly CPU bring up), 
however cpus_have_cap could be used at runtime to check whether the 
AArch32 mode is present...

But I think those 2 functions should be kept together.

Note that today, we always use the boot CPU data to know if a feature 
exists (see include/asm-arm/cpufeatures.h).
