perf docs arm_spe: Clarify more SPE requirements related to KPTI



The question of exactly when KPTI needs to be disabled comes up a lot
because it doesn't always need to be done. Add the relevant kernel
function and some examples that describe the behavior.

Also describe the interrupt requirement and that no error message will
be printed if this isn't met.
