commit 517953c2c47f9c00a002f588ac856a5bc70cede3 upstream.
The SMCCC ARCH_WORKAROUND_1 service can indicate that although the
firmware knows about the Spectre-v2 mitigation, this particular
CPU is not vulnerable, and it is thus not necessary to call
the firmware on this CPU.
Let's use this information to our benefit.
