Subject: [PATCH 00/35] jump_label, objtool, IBRS and IBPB

Lots of patches..

They include:

 - objtool validation of jump_label/static_cpu_has

   Allows asserting that the code block following a jump_label/static_cpu_has
   is indeed unconditional. Ensures GCC doesn't generate particularly stupid
   code which would re-insert a dynamic test.

 - objtool validation of retpoline

   Looks for indirect JMP/CALL sites when build with a retpoline enabled
   compiler. Has already spotted a bunch of sites that need fixing, see
   below.

 - makes x86 hard rely on asm-goto to ensure we can indeed use static_cpu_has
   to avoid dynamic branches (and thus speculation).

 - The IBRS/IBPB patches from Thomas that use static_cpu_has()

   These hard rely on the above; we must not speculate across the IBRS/IBPB
   MSR writes otherwise that would totally defeat the point. Prior patches had
   LFENCE crud in the else-clause, which then makes the primitives
   unconditionally expensive.

 - Rebased the IBRS/IBPB-KVM patches from Ashok on top

 - Random odd fixes for various things encountered while doing the above.


Please have a look and sorry for this many patches.
