  powerpc/security: Fix spectre_v2 reporting (2019-03-21 21:09:03 +1100)

- ------------------------------------------------------------------
powerpc fixes for 5.1 #3

One fix for a boot failure on 32-bit, introduced during the merge window.

A fix for our handling of CLOCK_MONOTONIC in the 64-bit VDSO. Changing the wall
clock across the Y2038 boundary could cause CLOCK_MONOTONIC to jump forward and
backward.

Our spectre_v2 reporting was a bit confusing due to a bug I introduced. On some
systems it was reporting that the count cache was disabled and also that we were
flushing the count cache on context switch. Only the former is true, and given
that the count cache is disabled it doesn't make any sense to flush it. No one
reported it, so presumably the presence of any mitigation is all people check
for.

Finally a small build fix for zsmalloc on 32-bit.

Thanks to:
  Ben Hutchings, Christophe Leroy, Diana Craciun, Guenter Roeck, Michael Neuling.
