Subject: [PATCH 01/13] x86/entry: Fix AC assertion

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@...radead.org>

The WARN added in commit 3c73b81a9164 ("x86/entry, selftests: Further
improve user entry sanity checks") unconditionally triggers on my IVB
machine because it does not support SMAP.

For !SMAP hardware we patch out CLAC/STAC instructions and thus if
userspace sets AC, we'll still have it set after entry.

Fixes: 3c73b81a9164 ("x86/entry, selftests: Further improve user entry sanity checks")
