arm64: spectre: increase parameters that can be used to turn off bhb …

…mitigation individually

In our environment, it was found that the mitigation BHB has a great
impact on the benchmark performance. For example, in the lmbench test,
the "process fork && exit" test performance drops by 20%.
So it is necessary to have the ability to turn off the mitigation
individually through cmdline, thus avoiding having to compile the
kernel by adjusting the config.
