Subject: [PATCH 3.16 33/86] x86/speculation: Propagate information about
 RSB filling mitigation to sysfs

3.16.68-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

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

commit bb4b3b7762735cdaba5a40fd94c9303d9ffa147a upstream.

If spectrev2 mitigation has been enabled, RSB is filled on context switch
in order to protect from various classes of spectrev2 attacks.

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