Some existing/future meta cpucaps match need the presence of individual
cpucaps. Currently the individual cpucaps checks it via an array based
flag and this introduces dependency on the array entry order.
This limitation exists only for system scope cpufeature.
This patch introduces an internal helper function (__system_matches_cap)
to invoke the matching handler for system scope. This helper has to be
used during a narrow window when,
- The system wide safe registers are set with all the SMP CPUs and,
- The SYSTEM_FEATURE cpu_hwcaps may not have been set.
Normal users should use the existing cpus_have_{const_}cap() global
function.

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.
