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.
