Why a list? Shouldn't it be one or the other?

It doesn't look like it is necessary to parse ',' at all. I would remove
the while loop too.

Please avoid this renaming. Choose one name or the other from the start.

I would keep the comment

Please introduce this switch in the previous patch. But it makes sense
to add the ssbd_state variable in this patch.

This should "return false". Also, it might make sense to set ssbd_state
to ARM_SSBD_MITIGATED?

We have the ARM_SSBD bit, the ssbd_state variable and
ssbd_callback_required. Both ARM_SSBD and ssbd_state are shared across
cores while ssbd_callback_required is per-cpu. Does
ssbd_callback_required really need to be per-cpu? Do we need both
variables? For instance, we could just return ssbd_state ==
ARM_SSBD_RUNTIME instead of this_cpu(ssbd_callback_required)?

This function is supposed to detect whether a workaround is needed, not
enable it, right? Should this switch and relative code be moved to the
.enable function for this capability?
