arm64: Unconditionally enable LSE support

LSE atomics have been in the architecture since ARMv8.1 (released in
2014), and are hopefully supported by all modern toolchains.

Drop the optional nature of LSE support in the kernel, and always
compile the support in, as this really is very little code. LL/SC
still is the default, and the switch to LSE is done dynamically.

help
As part of the Large System Extensions, ARMv8.1 introduces new
atomic instructions that are designed specifically to scale in
very large systems.
Say Y here to make use of these instructions for the in-kernel
atomic routines. This incurs a small overhead on CPUs that do
not support these instructions.
