Now that we allow CPUs affected by erratum 1418040 to come in late,
this prevents their unaffected sibblings from coming in late (or
coming back after a suspend or hotplug-off, which amounts to the
same thing).

To allow this, we need to add ARM64_CPUCAP_OPTIONAL_FOR_LATE_CPU,
which amounts to set .type to ARM64_CPUCAP_WEAK_LOCAL_CPU_FEATURE.
