s390: add automatic detection of the spectre defense

[ Upstream commit 6e179d64126b909f0b288fa63cdbf07c531e9b1d ]

Automatically decide between nobp vs. expolines if the spectre_v2=auto
kernel parameter is specified or CONFIG_EXPOLINE_AUTO=y is set.

The decision made at boot time due to CONFIG_EXPOLINE_AUTO=y being set
can be overruled with the nobp, nospec and spectre_v2 kernel parameters.
