    arm64: errata: Unify speculative SSBS errata logic
    
    [ Upstream commit ec768766608092087dfb5c1fc45a16a6f524dee2 ]
    
    Cortex-X4 erratum 3194386 and Neoverse-V3 erratum 3312417 are identical,
    with duplicate Kconfig text and some unsightly ifdeffery. While we try
    to share code behind CONFIG_ARM64_WORKAROUND_SPECULATIVE_SSBS, having
    separate options results in a fair amount of boilerplate code, and this
    will only get worse as we expand the set of affected CPUs.
    
    To reduce this boilerplate, unify the two behind a common Kconfig
    option. This removes the duplicate text and Kconfig logic, and removes
    the need for the intermediate ARM64_WORKAROUND_SPECULATIVE_SSBS option.
    The set of affected CPUs is described as a list so that this can easily
    be extended.
    
    I've used ARM64_ERRATUM_3194386 (matching the Neoverse-V3 erratum ID) as
    the common option, matching the way we use ARM64_ERRATUM_1319367 to
    cover Cortex-A57 erratum 1319537 and Cortex-A72 erratum 1319367.
