Qualcomm Kryo 200-series Gold cores appear to have a derivative of an
ARM Cortex A73 in them. Since A73 needs Spectre mitigation then the
Kyro 200-series Gold cores also should need Spectre mitigation.

I don't really have any good way to test this patch but it seems
likely it's needed. If nothing else the claim is that that Qualcomm
Kyro 280 CPU is vulnerable [1] but I don't see any mitigations in the
kernel for it.
NOTE: presumably this patch won't actually do much on its own because
(I believe) it requires a firmware update to go with it.
