[ Upstream commit 7187bb7d0b5c7dfa18ca82e9e5c75e13861b1d88 ] Cortex-X4 and Neoverse-V3 suffer from errata whereby an MSR to the SSBS special-purpose register does not affect subsequent speculative instructions, permitting speculative store bypassing for a window of time. This is described in their Software Developer Errata Notice (SDEN) documents: * Cortex-X4 SDEN v8.0, erratum 3194386: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2432808/0800/ * Neoverse-V3 SDEN v6.0, erratum 3312417: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-2891958/0600/ To workaround these errata, it is necessary to place a speculation barrier (SB) after MSR to the SSBS special-purpose register. This patch adds the requisite SB after writes to SSBS within the kernel, and hides the presence of SSBS from EL0 such that userspace software which cares about SSBS will manipulate this via prctl(PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL, ...).
