Daniel Sneddon a9ca0e34a4 x86/bhi: Define SPEC_CTRL_BHI_DIS_S
commit 0f4a837615ff925ba62648d280a861adf1582df7 upstream.

Newer processors supports a hardware control BHI_DIS_S to mitigate
Branch History Injection (BHI). Setting BHI_DIS_S protects the kernel
from userspace BHI attacks without having to manually overwrite the
branch history.

Define MSR_SPEC_CTRL bit BHI_DIS_S and its enumeration CPUID.BHI_CTRL.
Mitigation is enabled later.
