arm64: entry: Make the kpti trampoline's kpti sequence optional
commit c47e4d04ba0f1ea17353d85d45f611277507e07a upstream.
Spectre-BHB needs to add sequences to the vectors. Having one global
set of vectors is a problem for big/little systems where the sequence
is costly on cpus that are not vulnerable.
Making the vectors per-cpu in the style of KVM's bh_harden_hyp_vecs
requires the vectors to be generated by macros.
Make the kpti re-mapping of the kernel optional, so the macros can be
used without kpti.
