No copyright or SPDX line?
At least it doesn't have the old horrid Intel header boilerplate, so I
should be thankful of that. But it isn't ok like this either, sorry.

Why bits and not integer values? Can you mix them?

Why is this exported? What module will ever need this?
And horrid global symbol name, it doesn't say what it is in an obvious
way just by looking at it.

Why export this? You only ever use it in one place? Again, what module
needs it?
And I have to ask, EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() for this and spec_ctrl_ibrs as
well?

Again, what module needs this?
And did __read_mostly really matter in performance tests?

It's a single variable, why such complex debugfs for that? This should
be handled by a helper macro already, right?

Always run checkpatch.pl so you don't get grumpy kernel maintainers
telling you to run checkpatch.pl :(

It's a debugfs write callback, why do you care about WRITE_ONCE()?
