When disabling PPC_BARRIER_NOSPEC on Microwatt to see if it improved
boot time, I discovered the build was broken (first patch). This got
worse between when I first tried and now (second patch).

The third patch disables PPC_BARRIER_NOSPEC when building for Microwatt.
This one is optional, as it doesn't seem to change boot speed with the
current Microwatt design on an Arty.

Joel Stanley (3):
  powerpc/64s: Fix build when !PPC_BARRIER_NOSPEC
  powerpc: Fix undefined static key
  powerpc/microwatt: CPU doesn't (yet) have speculation bugs
