Martin Schwidefsky aeaf7002a7 s390: detect etoken facility
Detect and report the etoken facility. With spectre_v2=auto or
CONFIG_EXPOLINE_AUTO=y automatically disable expolines and use
the full branch prediction mode for the kernel.

Martin Schwidefsky 4253b0e062 s390: move spectre sysfs attribute code
The nospec-branch.c file is compiled without the gcc options to
generate expoline thunks. The return branch of the sysfs show
functions cpu_show_spectre_v1 and cpu_show_spectre_v2 is an indirect
branch as well. These need to be compiled with expolines.

Move the sysfs functions for spectre reporting to a separate file
and loose an '.' for one of the messages.
