arm64: Use a raw spinlock in __install_bp_hardening_cb()

__install_bp_hardening_cb() is called via stop_machine() as part
of the cpu_enable callback. To force each CPU to take its turn
when allocating slots, they take a spinlock.

With the RT patches applied, the spinlock becomes a mutex,
and we get warnings about sleeping while in stop_machine():

Switch this to a raw spinlock, as we know this is only called with
IRQs masked.
