Not sure whether the generated code would be any different but we should
probably add the check for the CPU capability in the 'if' condition
above, before the READ_ONCE (which expands to some asm volatile):

	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM64_WORKAROUND_2645198) &&
	    cpus_have_const_cap(ARM64_WORKAROUND_2645198)) {
		pte_t pte = ...
		...
	}

Same here.
