Subject: [PATCH 3.16 024/131] x86/speculation: Make "seccomp" the default
mode for Speculative Store Bypass
3.16.59-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>
commit f21b53b20c754021935ea43364dbf53778eeba32 upstream.
Unless explicitly opted out of, anything running under seccomp will have
SSB mitigations enabled. Choosing the "prctl" mode will disable this.
[ tglx: Adjusted it to the new arch_seccomp_spec_mitigate() mechanism ]
