In current form cpu_has_la57() reports platform's support for LA57 through reading the output of cpuid. A much more useful information is whether 5-level paging is actually enabled on the running system. Presence of the la57 flag in /proc/cpuinfo signifies that 5-level paging was compiled into the kernel, is supported by the platform and wasn't disabled by kernel command line argument. Use system() with cat and grep to figure out if la57 is enabled on the running system.
