To pick the changes from:

  d45476d983240937 ("x86/speculation: Rename RETPOLINE_AMD to RETPOLINE_LFENCE")

Its just a comment fixup.

This only causes these perf files to be rebuilt:

  CC       /tmp/build/perf/bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o
  CC       /tmp/build/perf/bench/mem-memset-x86-64-asm.o

And addresses this perf build warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h'
  diff -u tools/arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h

Pull x86 spectre fixes from Borislav Petkov:

 - Mitigate Spectre v2-type Branch History Buffer attacks on machines
   which support eIBRS, i.e., the hardware-assisted speculation
   restriction after it has been shown that such machines are vulnerable
   even with the hardware mitigation.

 - Do not use the default LFENCE-based Spectre v2 mitigation on AMD as
   it is insufficient to mitigate such attacks. Instead, switch to
   retpolines on all AMD by default.

 - Update the docs and add some warnings for the obviously vulnerable
   cmdline configurations.

<title>x86/speculation: Rename RETPOLINE_AMD to RETPOLINE_LFENCE</title>

<content type='text'>
The RETPOLINE_AMD name is unfortunate since it isn't necessarily
AMD only, in fact Hygon also uses it. Furthermore it will likely be
sufficient for some Intel processors. Therefore rename the thing to
RETPOLINE_LFENCE to better describe what it is.

Add the spectre_v2=retpoline,lfence option as an alias to
spectre_v2=retpoline,amd to preserve existing setups. However, the output
of /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/spectre_v2 will be changed.

This code puts an exception table entry on the PREFETCH instruction to
overwrite it with a JMP.d8 when it triggers an exception. Except of
course, our code is no longer writable, also SMP.

Instead of fixing this broken mess, simply take it out.
