KVM: arm64: Add templates for BHB mitigation sequences
KVM writes the Spectre-v2 mitigation template at the beginning of each
vector when a CPU requires a specific sequence to run.
Because the template is copied, it can not be modified by the alternatives
at runtime. As the KVM template code is intertwined with the bp-hardening
callbacks all templates must have a bp-hardening callback.
Add templates for calling ARCH_WORKAROUND_3 and one for each value of K
in the brancy-loop. Identify these sequences by a new parameter
template_start, and add a copy of install_bp_hardening_cb() that is able to
install them.
