[RFC PATCH] arm64: kaslr: Set TCR_EL1.NFD1 when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE=y

[Will Deacon]

TCR_EL1.NFD1 was allocated by SVE and ensures that fault-surpressing SVE
memory accesses (e.g. speculative accesses from a first-fault gather load)
which translate via TTBR1_EL1 result in a translation fault if they
miss in the TLB when executed from EL0. This mitigates some timing attacks
against KASLR, where the kernel address space could otherwise be probed
efficiently using the FFR in conjunction with suppressed faults on SVE
loads.

Sending as RFC because this doesn't make any difference if kpti is enabled,
which is the default with KASLR. It helps if kpti=off is being passed and
shouldn't have an impact on performance.
