arm64: Use the clearbhb instruction in mitigations
stable inclusion from stable-v4.19.236 commit ed5dec3fae86f20db52930e1d9a7cc38403994cc category: bugfix bugzilla: 186460, https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I53MHA CVE: CVE-2022-23960 -------------------------------- commit 228a26b9 upstream. Future CPUs may implement a clearbhb instruction that is sufficient to mitigate SpectreBHB. CPUs that implement this instruction, but not CSV2.3 must be affected by Spectre-BHB. Add support to use this instruction as the BHB mitigation on CPUs that support it. The instruction is in the hint space, so it will be treated by a NOP as older CPUs.
