I'm not overly keen on adding hooks that are not used, and I can't
really foresee a use case for a FIQ NMI at the moment (there is no
plan to use Group-0 interrupts in VMs when the GIC is enabled, and the
only interrupt controller we have that uses FIQ doesn't even have
priorities, let alone NMIs).

Better written as:

	if (system_uses_nmi() && (read_sysreg(isr_el1) & nmi_flag)) {

Same thing.

Why? I don't see a good reason not to mitigate it, specially when the
mitigation is guarded by cpus_have_const_cap(ARM64_SPECTRE_V2). Maybe
you can explain what the rationale is for this.

Thanks,
