arm64: Advertise mitigation of Spectre-v2, or lack thereof
[ Upstream commit 73f38166095947f3b86b02fbed6bd592223a7ac8 ] We currently have a list of CPUs affected by Spectre-v2, for which we check that the firmware implements ARCH_WORKAROUND_1. It turns out that not all firmwares do implement the required mitigation, and that we fail to let the user know about it. Instead, let's slightly revamp our checks, and rely on a whitelist of cores that are known to be non-vulnerable, and let the user know the status of the mitigation in the kernel log.
