[PATCH RFC rebase 9/9] powerpc/64: barrier_nospec: Add commandline trigger

[Michal Suchanek]

Add commandline options spectre_v2 and nospectre_v2

These are named same as similar x86 options regardless of actual effect
to not require platform-specific configuration.

Supported options:
nospectre_v2 or spectre_v2=off - speculation barrier not used
spectre_v2=on or spectre_v2=auto - speculation barrier used

Changing the settings after boot is not supported and VM migration may
change requirements so auto is same as on.

Based on s390 implementation
