Subject: [Variant 2/Spectre-v2] arm64: entry: Apply BP hardening for high-priority synchronous exceptions

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>


Commit 5dfc6ed27710 upstream.

Software-step and PC alignment fault exceptions have higher priority than
instruction abort exceptions, so apply the BP hardening hooks there too
if the user PC appears to reside in kernel space.
