We unconditionally set the HW_AFDBM capability and only enable it on
CPUs which really have the feature. But sometimes we need to know
whether this cpu has the capability of HW AF. So decouple AF from
DBM by new helper cpu_has_hw_af().

Which bug did the kbuild robot actually report? I'd drop this line.
This line is added due to [1]:
"If you fix the issue, kindly add following tag
Reported-by: kbuild test robot <redacted>"

Yes, I know your concern, it is a little bit confusing. But I don't know
how to distinguish the case btw a) original bug report b) bug report
of my patch implementation? Thanks for any suggestion.
