Subject: Revert "x86/speculation: Simplify indirect_branch_prediction_barrier()" crashes KVM guest

Hi!

commit f208820a321f9b23d77d7eed89945d862d62a3ed
Author: David Woodhouse <dwmw@...zon.co.uk>

    Revert "x86/speculation: Simplify indirect_branch_prediction_barrier()"
    
    This reverts commit 64e16720ea0879f8ab4547e3b9758936d483909b.
    
    We cannot call C functions like that, without marking all the
    call-clobbered registers as, well, clobbered. We might have got away
    with it for now because the __ibp_barrier() function was *fairly*
    unlikely to actually use any other registers. But no. Just no.

causes a crash here. When I revert this revert on top of Linus' tree, it works fine.
Host is v4.13 + qemu-2.9.1 (openSUSE).
