      Pull x86 fixlet from Thomas Gleixner.
      
      Remove a warning about lack of compiler support for retpoline that most
      people can't do anything about, so it just annoys them needlessly.

      x86/retpoline: Remove compile time warning · b8b9ce4b
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      Remove the compile time warning when CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y and the compiler
      does not have retpoline support. Linus rationale for this is:
      
        It's wrong because it will just make people turn off RETPOLINE, and the
        asm updates - and return stack clearing - that are independent of the
        compiler are likely the most important parts because they are likely the
        ones easiest to target.
      
        And it's annoying because most people won't be able to do anything about
        it. The number of people building their own compiler? Very small. So if
        their distro hasn't got a compiler yet (and pretty much nobody does), the
        warning is just annoying crap.
      
        It is already properly reported as part of the sysfs interface. The
        compile-time warning only encourages bad things.
