It is just that I find the use of static_cpu_has()/boot_cpu_has() to be very
inconsistent. I doubt that show_cpuinfo_misc(), copy_fpstate_to_sigframe(),
or i915_memcpy_init_early() that use static_cpu_has() are any hotter than
text_poke_early().
Would some beefing of the comment over it help?
Is there any comment over static_cpu_has()? ;-)

Anyhow, obviously a comment would be useful.
