Russell Currey 48482f4dd3 selftests/powerpc: Better reporting in spectre_v2 
In commit f3054ffd71 ("selftests/powerpc: Return skip code for
spectre_v2"), the spectre_v2 selftest is updated to be aware of cases
where the vulnerability status reported in sysfs is incorrect, skipping
the test instead.

This happens because qemu can misrepresent the mitigation status of the
host to the guest. If the count cache is disabled in the host, and this
is correctly reported to the guest, then the guest won't apply
mitigations. If the guest is then migrated to a new host where
mitigations are necessary, it is now vulnerable because it has not
applied mitigations.

Update the selftest to report when we see excessive misses, indicative of
the count cache being disabled. If software flushing is enabled, also
warn that these flushes are just wasting performance.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
