Subject[PATCH 2/2] arm64: Branch predictor hardening for Cavium ThunderX2
Date
Use PSCI based mitigation for speculative execution attacks targeting
the branch predictor. The approach is similar to the one used for
Cortex-A CPUs, but in case of ThunderX2 we add another SMC call to
test if the firmware supports the capability.

If the secure firmware has been updated with the mitigation code to
invalidate the branch target buffer, we use the PSCI version call to
invoke it.
