commit c62fa117c32bd1abed9304c58e0da6940f8c7fc2 upstream. Since X86_FEATURE_ENTRY_IBPB will invalidate all harmful predictions with IBPB, no software-based untraining of returns is needed anymore. Currently, this change affects retbleed and SRSO mitigations so if either of the mitigations is doing IBPB and the other one does the software sequence, the latter is not needed anymore.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
