When CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU_VULNERABILITIES is not set, references
to spectre_v2_update_state() cause a build error, so provide an
empty stub for that function when the Kconfig option is not set.

Fixes this build error:

arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: arch/arm/mm/proc-v7-bugs.o: in function `cpu_v7_bugs_init':
proc-v7-bugs.c:(.text+0x52): undefined reference to `spectre_v2_update_state'
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: proc-v7-bugs.c:(.text+0x82): undefined reference to `spectre_v2_update_state'

Fixes: b9baf5c8c5c3 ("ARM: Spectre-BHB workaround")

I'd suggest sending this direct to Linus as I've been doing with the
other fixes for Spectre BHB. Trying to fit it now into a pull request
is just going to be very messy.

Thanks.
