As it's seen in unmap_kernel_at_el0 (both the function definition
and its usage in arm64_features[]) from arch/arm64/kernel/cpufeature.c
the kernel reports this string:
CPU features: detected: Kernel page table isolation (KPTI)
or (before commit e0f6429dc1c0 ("arm64: cpufeature: Remove redundant "feature"
in reports")):
CPU features: detected feature: Kernel page table isolation (KPTI)
if KPTI is enabled on the system.
So on let's adjust check_variant3_linux() to make it grep these
strings if executed on an aarch64 platform.
Tested on a Cavium ThunderX2 machine.

Use platomav's MCExtractor DB as the reference to decide whether our CPU microcode is the latest or not.
We have a builtin version of the DB in the script, but an updated version can be fetched and stored locally with --update-mcedb
* Add another location of Arch Linux ARM kernel
* Fix detection of CVE-2018-3615
We change the value of variantl1tf in the line directly before so its
value will never be "immune". Instead we can directly use the value of
variantl1tf to initialize variantl1tf_sgx.
* Fix cases where a CPU ucode version is not found in $procfs/cpuinfo.
When running whithin a virtual machine, it seems like $procfs/cpuinfo doesn't contain
a 'microcode' line, which triggers a script runtime error.
Fall back to '0x0' in this case, as other part of the script seems to already this
as a default value anyway.
* Double quote to prevent globbing and word splitting.
Commit b48b2177b7 ("feat: Add Clear Linux Distro (#244)") broke kernel
detection for distros using that directory for other purposes than
storing the kernel image.
Example:
# pacman -Qo /lib/kernel
/usr/lib/kernel/ is owned by mkinitcpio 24-2
/usr/lib/kernel/ is owned by systemd 239.2-1

When using this script on a large amount a machine (via clustershell or
instance) it can be easier to have a very short result on one line
showing only the vulnerabilities
The spectre-meltdown-checker.sh file is missing licensing information.
The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text.
