Subject: [Patch v5 14/16] x86/speculation: Use STIBP to restrict speculation on non-dumpable task

When a task changes its dumpability, arch_update_spec_ctrl_restriction()
is called to place restriction on the task's speculative execution
according to dumpability changes.

Implements arch_update_spec_restriction() for x86.  Use STIBP to
restrict speculative execution when running a task set to non-dumpable,
or clear the restriction if the task is set to dumpable.
