Right, and as AMD has a separate bit for this in CPUID_80000008_EBX[12],
we probably don't really need the synthetic bit here but simply use the
one at (13*32+12) - word 13.

I like ibp_barrier() better.

Btw, we can simplify this a bit by dropping the inputs and marking the 3
GPRs as clobbered:

alternative_input("",
"mov $0x49, %%ecx\n\t"
"mov $1, %%eax\n\t"
"xor %%edx, %%edx\n\t"
"wrmsr\n\t",
X86_FEATURE_IBPB,
ASM_NO_INPUT_CLOBBER("eax", "ecx", "edx", "memory"));

The "memory" clobber is probably not really needed but it wouldn't
hurt...

Also, above says:

> switch to using ALTERNATIVES instead of static_cpu_has]

Why?

if (static_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_IBPB))
wrmsr(MSR_IA32_PRED_CMD, PRED_CMD_IBPB, 0);
It can't get any more readable than this. Why even f*ck with
alternatives?

We don't really need the pr_info as "ibpb" will appear in /proc/cpuinfo.

Good mailing practices for 400: avoid top-posting and trim the reply.
