In cloud environments it can be useful to *only* enable the vmexit mitigation and leave syscalls vulnerable. Add that as an option. This is similar to the old spectre_bhi=auto option which was removed with the following commit: 36d4fe14 ("x86/bugs: Remove CONFIG_BHI_MITIGATION_AUTO and spectre_bhi=auto") with the main difference being that this has a more descriptive name and is disabled by default. Mitigation switch requested by Maksim Davydov <davydov-max@yandex-team.ru>. [ bp: Massage. ] Signed-off-by:
