commit 25875aa71d upstream.
The mitigations for Spectre-BHB are only applied when an exception
is taken, but when unprivileged BPF is enabled, userspace can
load BPF programs that can be used to exploit the problem.
When unprivileged BPF is enabled, report the vulnerable status via
the spectre_v2 sysfs file.

commit b9baf5c8c5 upstream.
Workaround the Spectre BHB issues for Cortex-A15, Cortex-A57,
Cortex-A72, Cortex-A73 and Cortex-A75. We also include Brahma B15 as
well to be safe, which is affected by Spectre V2 in the same ways as
Cortex-A15.
