x86/speculation: Clean up various Spectre related details
Harmonize all the Spectre messages so that a:
dmesg | grep -i spectre
... gives us most Spectre related kernel boot messages.
Also fix a few other details:
- clarify a comment about firmware speculation control
- s/KPTI/PTI
- remove various line-breaks that made the code uglier
