Subject: [PATCH v7 3/3] x86/speculation: Propagate information about RSB
 filling mitigation to sysfs

From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@...e.cz>

If spectrev2 mitigation has been enabled, we're filling RSB on context 
switch in order to protect from various classess of spectrev2 attacks.

If this mitigation is enabled, say so in sysfs for spectrev2.
