We attempt to initialize each CPU's arch_timer event stream in arch_timer_evtstrm_enable(), which we call from the arch_timer_starting_cpu() cpu hotplug callback which is registered early in boot. As this is registered before we initialize the system cpucaps, the test for ARM64_HAS_ECV will always be false for CPUs present at boot time, and will only be taken into account for CPUs onlined late (including those which are hotplugged out and in again). Due to this, CPUs present and boot time may not use the intended divider and scale factor to generate the event stream, and may differ from other CPUs. Correct this by only initializing the event stream after cpucaps have been finalized, registering a separate CPU hotplug callback for the event stream configuration. Since the caps must be finalized by this point, use cpus_have_final_cap() to verify this.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
