This patchset is still very early. There are a number of things missing
that we have to do before asking anyone to merge it (listed below).
It would be great if folks can start testing applications now (in QEMU) to
look for breakage.
Any early comments on the design or the patches would be appreciated as
well.

Looks ok to me. Starting off with a compile-time config option seems fine.

I do think that the x86 cpuid part should (patch 15) should be the
first patch, so that we see "la57" as a capability in /proc/cpuinfo
whether it's being enabled or not? We should merge that part
regardless of any mm patches, I think.

Okay, I'll split up the CPUID part into separate patch and move it
beginning for the patchset

REQUIRED_MASK portion will stay where it is.
