Subject: [PATCH] s390: move spectre sysfs attribute code

The nospec-branch.c file is compiled without the gcc options to
generate expoline thunks. The return branch of the sysfs show
functions cpu_show_spectre_v1 and cpu_show_spectre_v2 is an indirect
branch as well. These need to be compiled with expolines.

Move the sysfs functions for spectre reporting to a separate file
and loose an '.' for one of the messages.
