[PATCH 4/9] powerpc/dexcr: Support userspace ROP protection

The ISA 3.1B hashst and hashchk instructions use a per-cpu SPR HASHKEYR
to hold a key used in the hash calculation. This key should be different
for each process to make it harder for a malicious process to recreate
valid hash values for a victim process.
Add support for storing a per-thread hash key, and setting/clearing
HASHKEYR appropriately.

v1: * Guard HASHKEYR update behind change check
* HASHKEYR reset moved earlier to patch 2
