James Morse 26129ea295 KVM: arm64: Add templates for BHB mitigation sequences
KVM writes the Spectre-v2 mitigation template at the beginning of each
vector when a CPU requires a specific sequence to run.

Because the template is copied, it can not be modified by the alternatives
at runtime.

Add templates for calling ARCH_WORKAROUND_3 and one for each value of K
in the brancy-loop. Instead of adding dummy functions for 'fn', which would
disable the Spectre-v2 mitigation, add template_start to indicate that a
template (and which one) is in use. Finally add a copy of
install_bp_hardening_cb() that is able to install these.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
