Subject: [Patch v2 3/4] x86/speculation: Extend per process STIBP to AMD cpus.

From: Thomas Lendacky <Thomas.Lendacky@....com>

We extend the app to app spectre v2 mitigation using STIBP
to the AMD cpus. We need to take care of special
cases for AMD cpu's update of SPEC_CTRL MSR to avoid double
writing of MSRs from update to SSBD and STIBP.
