Further to v2, work around the contentious CD update.
Thanks,

In general it might be nice to have the ability to disable hardware
access/dirty bit management for debugging or performance comparison
purposes without having to rebuild the kernel. However once FEAT_HAFT
comes into the picture we also start to have a real functional concern
where the decision to use HAFT based on the boot CPUs can prevent SVA
or late-onlining if SMMUs/CPUs are later found to lack HAFT support.
To that end, add the appropriate MMFR1 override, with an easy "nohaft"
alias for the significant case, partly since the feature/field naming
isn't the most obvious, but also so it could potentially be redirected
in future if someone wanted to attempt a higher-level means of turning
off just HAFT usage independently from FEAT_HDBSS.

Since table access flags cannot be software-managed, if process
pagetables are using HAFT then SVA must require the SMMU to support and
enable it too, otherwise page aging is liable to get out of whack.
For unbinding, we can't disable HAFT atomically with HA as might be
desired, but luckily we can get away with just not disabling HA either.
