Subject: [PATCH 5.15 27/89] x86/retpoline: Swizzle retpoline thunk

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

commit 00e1533325fd1fb5459229fe37f235462649f668 upstream.

Put the actual retpoline thunk as the original code so that it can
become more complicated. Specifically, it allows RET to be a JMP,
which can't be .altinstr_replacement since that doesn't do relocations
(except for the very first instruction).
