The assembler version of the expoline thunk use the naming
__s390x_indirect_jump_rxuse_ry while the compiler generates names
like __s390_indirect_jump_rx_use_ry. Make the naming more consistent.

To avoid a mixture of asm code with expolines and c code without them,
propagate CC_USING_EXPOLINE to KBUILD_AFLAGS and use it to detect
whether asm code should have expolines or not.

The BPF JIT uses a 'b <disp>(%r<x>)' instruction in the definition
of the sk_load_word and sk_load_half functions.
Add support for branch-on-condition instructions contained in the
thunk code of an expoline.

The return from the ftrace_stub, _mcount, ftrace_caller and
return_to_handler functions is done with "br %r14" and "br %r1".
These are indirect branches as well and need to use execute
trampolines for CONFIG_EXPOLINE=y.
The ftrace_caller function is a special case as it returns to the
start of a function and may only use %r0 and %r1. For a pre z10
machine the standard execute trampoline uses a LARL + EX to do
this, but this requires *two* registers in the range %r1..%r15.
To get around this the 'br %r1' located in the lowcore is used,
then the EX instruction does not need an address register.
But the lowcore trick may only be used for pre z14 machines,
with noexec=on the mapping for the first page may not contain
instructions. The solution for that is an ALTERNATIVE in the
expoline THUNK generated by 'GEN_BR_THUNK %r1' to switch to
EXRL, this relies on the fact that a machine that supports
noexec=on has EXRL as well.

To be able to use the expoline branches in different assembler
files move the associated macros from entry.S to a new header
nospec-insn.h.
While we are at it make the macros a bit nicer to use.
