[PATCH v2 1/6] arm: Add BTB invalidation on switch_mm for Cortex-A9, A12 and A17

In order to avoid aliasing attacks against the branch predictor,
some implementations require to invalidate the BTB when switching
from one user context to another.
For this, we reuse the existing implementation for Cortex-A8, and
apply it to A9, A12 and A17.
