Each system capability can be of either boot, local, or system scope, depending on when the state of the capability is finalized. When we detect a conflict on a late CPU, we either offline the CPU or panic the system. We currently always panic if the conflict is caused by a boot scope capability, and offline the CPU if the conflict is caused by a local or system scope capability. We're going to want to add a new capability (for pointer authentication) which needs to be boot scope but doesn't need to panic the system when a conflict is detected. So add a new flag to specify whether the capability requires the system to panic or not. Current boot scope capabilities are updated to set the flag, so there should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

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.
