Subject: [PATCH 4.14 066/167] x86/entry/64: Remove the unused icebp macro

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@...e.de>

commit b498c261107461d5c42140dfddd05df83d8ca078 upstream.

That macro was touched around 2.5.8 times, judging by the full history
linux repo, but it was unused even then. Get rid of it already.
