The cpus_have_final_cap() function can be used to test a cpucap while also verifying that we do not consume the cpucap until system capabilities have been finalized. It would be helpful if we could do likewise for boot cpucaps. This patch adds a new cpus_have_final_boot_cap() helper which can be used to test a cpucap while also verifying that boot capabilities have been finalized. Users will be added in subsequent patches.

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.
