    x86/retpoline/entry: Convert entry assembler indirect jumps · 2641f08b
    David Woodhouse authored
    Convert indirect jumps in core 32/64bit entry assembler code to use
    non-speculative sequences when CONFIG_RETPOLINE is enabled.
    
    Don't use CALL_NOSPEC in entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath because the return
    address after the 'call' instruction must be *precisely* at the
    .Lentry_SYSCALL_64_after_fastpath label for stub_ptregs_64 to work,
    and the use of alternatives will mess that up unless we play horrid
    games to prepend with NOPs and make the variants the same length. It's
    not worth it; in the case where we ALTERNATIVE out the retpoline, the
    first instruction at __x86.indirect_thunk.rax is going to be a bare
    jmp *%rax anyway.
