arm64: cpufeatures: Correctly handle signed values
Although we've had signed values for some features such as PMUv3 and FP, the code that handles the comparaison with some limit has a couple of annoying issues: - the min_field_value is always unsigned, meaning that we cannot easily compare it with a negative value - it is not possible to have a range of values, let alone a range of negative values Fix this by: - adding an upper limit to the comparison, defaulting to all bits being set to the maximum positive value - ensuring that the signess of the min and max values are taken into account A ARM64_CPUID_FIELDS_NEG() macro is provided for signed features, but nothing is using it yet.
