ARM: spectre-v2: per-CPU vtables to work around big.Little systems
In big.Little systems, some CPUs require the Spectre workarounds in
paths such as the context switch, but other CPUs do not. In order
to handle these differences, we need per-CPU vtables.
We are unable to use the kernel's per-CPU variables to support this
as per-CPU is not initialised at times when we need access to the
vtables, so we have to use an array indexed by logical CPU number.
We use an array-of-pointers to avoid having function pointers in
the kernel's read/write .data section.
