Subject: [PATCH 5.4 09/51] x86/bugs: Add AMD retbleed= boot parameter

From: Alexandre Chartre <alexandre.chartre@...cle.com>

commit 7fbf47c7ce50b38a64576b150e7011ae73d54669 upstream.

Add the "retbleed=<value>" boot parameter to select a mitigation for
RETBleed. Possible values are "off", "auto" and "unret"
(JMP2RET mitigation). The default value is "auto".

Currently, "retbleed=auto" will select the unret mitigation on
AMD and Hygon and no mitigation on Intel (JMP2RET is not effective on
Intel).

  [peterz: rebase; add hygon]
  [jpoimboe: cleanups]

[cascardo: this effectively remove the UNRET mitigation as an option, so it
 has to be complemented by a later pick of the same commit later. This is
 done in order to pick retbleed_select_mitigation]
