[PATCH] arm64: Add KRYO4XX gold CPU core to spectre-v2 safe list

[Sai Prakash Ranjan <saiprakash.ranjan@codeaurora.org>]

KRYO4XX gold/big CPU cores are based on Cortex-A76 which has CSV2
bits set and are spectre-v2 safe. But on big.LITTLE systems where
they are coupled with other CPU cores such as the KRYO4XX silver
based on Cortex-A55 which are spectre-v2 safe but do not have CSV2
bits set, the system wide safe value will be set to the lowest value
of CSV2 bits as per FTR_LOWER_SAFE defined for CSV2 bits of register
ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.

This is a problem when booting a guest kernel on gold CPU cores
where it will incorrectly report ARM_SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_1 warning
and consider them as vulnerable for Spectre variant 2 due to system
wide safe value which is used in kvm emulation code when reading id
registers. One wrong way of fixing this is to set the FTR_HIGHER_SAFE
for CSV2 bits, so instead add the KRYO4XX gold CPU core to the safe
list which will be consulted even when the sanitised read reports
that CSV2 bits are not set for KRYO4XX gold cores.
