arm64: proton-pack: Report Spectre-BHB vulnerabilities as part of Spectre-v2
commit dee435be76f4117410bbd90573a881fd33488f37 upstream. Speculation attacks against some high-performance processors can make use of branch history to influence future speculation as part of a spectre-v2 attack. This is not mitigated by CSV2, meaning CPUs that previously reported 'Not affected' are now moderately mitigated by CSV2. Update the value in /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/spectre_v2 to also show the state of the BHB mitigation.
