Hi Mark,

FEAT_LSFE is optional from v9.5, it adds new instructions for atomic
memory operations with floating point values.  We have no immediate use
for it in kernel, provide a hwcap so userspace can discover it and allow
the ID register field to be exposed to KVM guests.

I have looked through the series and it looks good to me modulo a couple of minor comments left on the patches. Bare in mind fairly new here and this is the first use of hwcap3 so I expect more experienced review is required.
