arm64: Move BP hardening to check_and_switch_context
We call arm64_apply_bp_hardening() from post_ttbr_update_workaround, which has the unexpected consequence of being triggered on every exception return to userspace when ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN is selected, even if no context switch actually occured. This is a bit suboptimal, and it would be more logical to only invalidate the branch predictor when we actually switch to a different mm. In order to solve this, move the call to arm64_apply_bp_hardening() into check_and_switch_context(), where we're guaranteed to pick a different mm context.
