x86/speculation: Split out TIF update

commit e6da8bb6f9abb2628381904b24163c770e630bac upstream.

The update of the TIF_SSBD flag and the conditional speculation control MSR
update is done in the ssb_prctl_set() function directly. The upcoming prctl
support for controlling indirect branch speculation via STIBP needs the
same mechanism.

Split the code out and make it reusable. Reword the comment about updates
for other tasks.
