powerpc/security: Use a mutex for interrupt exit code patching

The mitigation-patching.sh script in the powerpc selftests toggles
all mitigations on and off simultaneously, revealing that rfi_flush
and stf_barrier cannot safely operate at the same time due to races
in updating the static key.

On some systems, the static key code throws a warning and the kernel
remains functional.  On others, the kernel will hang or crash.

Fix this by slapping on a mutex.
