Subject: [PATCH v6 02/41] x86/shstk: Add Kconfig option for shadow stack

From: Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@...el.com>

Shadow stack provides protection for applications against function return
address corruption. It is active when the processor supports it, the
kernel has CONFIG_X86_SHADOW_STACK enabled, and the application is built
for the feature. This is only implemented for the 64-bit kernel. When it
is enabled, legacy non-shadow stack applications continue to work, but
without protection.

Since there is another feature that utilizes CET (Kernel IBT) that will
share implementation with shadow stacks, create CONFIG_CET to signify
that at least one CET feature is configured.

---
v5:
 - Remove capitalization of shadow stack (Boris)

v3:
 - Add X86_CET (Kees)
 - Add back WRUSS dependency (Kees)
 - Fix verbiage (Dave)
 - Change from promt to bool (Kirill)
 - Add more to commit log

v2:
 - Remove already wrong kernel size increase info (tlgx)
 - Change prompt to remove "Intel" (tglx)
 - Update line about what CPUs are supported (Dave)

Yu-cheng v25:
 - Remove X86_CET and use X86_SHADOW_STACK directly.
