arm64: Add 'ssbd' command-line option
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1787993
CVE-2018-3639 (arm64)
commit
a43ae4dfe56a01f5b98ba0cb2f784b6a43bafcc6 upstream.
On a system where the firmware implements ARCH_WORKAROUND_2,
it may be useful to either permanently enable or disable the
workaround for cases where the user decides that they'd rather
not get a trap overhead, and keep the mitigation permanently
on or off instead of switching it on exception entry/exit.
In any case, default to the mitigation being enabled.
