commit fc0e1299da54 upstream.
In order for code such as TLB invalidation to operate efficiently when the decision to map the kernel at EL0 is determined at runtime, this patch introduces a helper function, arm64_kernel_unmapped_at_el0, to determine whether or not the kernel is mapped whilst running in userspace.
Currently, this just reports the value of CONFIG_UNMAP_KERNEL_AT_EL0, but will later be hooked up to a fake CPU capability using a static key.
