[PATCH 4.14 094/109] ARM: spectre-v2: warn about incorrect context switching functions

From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>

Commit c44f366ea7c85e1be27d08f2f0880f4120698125 upstream.

Warn at error level if the context switching function is not what we
are expecting. This can happen with big.Little systems, which we
currently do not support.
