Re. the #ifndef, consider that tdep.h files are included in cross
debugger builds.  E.g., an x86-hosted gdb cross debugging aarch64.
Some archs have "namespaced" names like the s390 mips, sparc, etc.
(e.g., HWCAP_S390_VX) which avoids the case of the names being defined
on host/target with a different meanings/values, but not all do.
But even with such names, we always have to provide fallback definitions
for cross debuggers.  And with that all in mind, and since you're defining
fallbacks anyway, how about unconditionally defining/using our
own conflict-resistant versions, like AARCH64_HWCAP_APIA?
