Johannes Wikner e4f2043985 x86/bugs: Skip RSB fill at VMEXIT
commit 0fad2878642ec46225af2054564932745ac5c765 upstream.

entry_ibpb() is designed to follow Intel's IBPB specification regardless
of CPU. This includes invalidating RSB entries.

Hence, if IBPB on VMEXIT has been selected, entry_ibpb() as part of the
RET untraining in the VMEXIT path will take care of all BTB and RSB
clearing so there's no need to explicitly fill the RSB 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.
