commit 56986016cb8cd9050e601831fe89f332b4e3c46e upstream.
Add a definition for cpu_show_spectre_v1() to override the generic version. Currently this just prints "Not affected" or "Vulnerable" based on the firmware flag.
Although the kernel does have array_index_nospec() in a few places, we haven't yet audited all the powerpc code to see where it's necessary, so for now we don't list that as a mitigation.
