[PATCH 1/3] arm64: Defer enabling pointer authentication on boot core

From: Srinivas Ramana <hidden>
Date: 2021-01-09 00:31:03
Also in: linux-arm-msm, lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Linus Torvalds

Defer enabling pointer authentication on boot core until
after its required to be enabled by cpufeature framework.
This will help in controlling the feature dynamically
with a boot parameter.
