Are you really sure you want us to apply this? If we do, then you can't run
KVM guests anymore because your IMPDEF SMC results in an UNDEF being
injected (crash below).

I really think that you should just hook up the enable_psci_bp_hardening
callback like we've done for the Cortex CPUs. We can optimise this later
once the SMC standarisation work has been completed (which is nearly final
now and works in a backwards-compatible manner).
