As suggested on the list, https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/1/4/282, there are
a number of cases where its useful for a system to avoid exporting a
sysfs entry for a given vulnerability. This set adds an architecture
specific callback which returns the bitmap of vulnerabilities the
architecture would like to advertise.

nit: Could we use "is_visible" callback in the attribute group to check this
dynamically ?
