Shouldn't this set the l1d_flush_out_mitigation to L1D_FLUSH_OUT_OFF since
it is set to L1D_FLUSH_OUT_ON by default? Or does it not matter because
the enable_l1d_flush_for_task() will return -EINVAL if the cpu doesn't
have the L1TF bug?

I guess it depends on what you want l1d_flush_out_prctl_set() and
l1d_flush_out_prctl_get() to return in this case.

Thanks,
Tom
