misleading/wrong stacktraces and confuse RELIABLE_STACKTRACE and
LIVEPATCH as the backtrace misses the function which is being fixed up.
- Add Straight Light Speculation mitigation support which uses a new
compiler switch -mharden-sls= which sticks an INT3 after a RET or an
indirect branch in order to block speculation after them. Reportedly,
CPUs do speculate behind such insns.
- The usual set of cleanups and improvements

Pull x86 core updates from Borislav Petkov:
- Get rid of all the .fixup sections because this generates
misleading/wrong stacktraces and confuse RELIABLE_STACKTRACE and
LIVEPATCH as the backtrace misses the function which is being fixed
up.
- Add Straight Line Speculation mitigation support which uses a new
compiler switch -mharden-sls= which sticks an INT3 after a RET or an
indirect branch in order to block speculation after them. Reportedly,
CPUs do speculate behind such insns.
