Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull STIBP fallout fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"The performance destruction department finally got it's act together
and came up with a cure for the STIPB regression:
- Provide a command line option to control the spectre v2 user space
mitigations. Default is either seccomp or prctl (if seccomp is
disabled in Kconfig). prctl allows mitigation opt-in, seccomp
enables the migitation for sandboxed processes.
- Rework the code to handle the conditional STIBP/IBPB control and
remove the now unused ptrace_may_access_sched() optimization
attempt
- Disable STIBP automatically when SMT is disabled
- Optimize the switch_to() logic to avoid MSR writes and invocations
of __switch_to_xtra().
- Make the asynchronous speculation TIF updates synchronous to
prevent stale mitigation state.
As a general cleanup this also makes retpoline directly depend on
compiler support and removes the 'minimal retpoline' option which just
pretended to provide some form of security while providing none"
