Is this perhaps a carry-over from arch/arm? Abstracting out read_cpuid()
doesn't seem to buy anything here, just opencode the one-line assembly
in each.

Might as well cleanup the naming a little too while you're at it, i.e.
read_cpu_id() and read_cpu_cachetype().

Stale comment?

Stale references. Also, no current arm64 implementation uses this. Premature
abstraction perhaps?

See comment on other email about putting function pointers in a struct
instead.

I know this is a carry-over from arch/arm, but how about moving this
to more of a C construct similar to arch/powerpc/kernel/cputable.c
instead? It's considerably easier to read that way, and it's convenient
to have the definitions all in one place, making it easier to share some
of the functions, etc.
