arm64: ssbs: Don't treat CPUs with SSBS as unaffected by SSB
SSBS provides a relatively cheap mitigation for SSB, but it is still a mitigation and its presence does not indicate that the CPU is unaffected by the vulnerability. Tweak the mitigation logic so that we report the correct string in sysfs. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
