Subject[PATCH 4.14 091/146] x86/l1tf: Show actual SMT state
Date
4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner tglx@linutronix.de

commit 130d6f946f6f2a972ee3ec8540b7243ab99abe97 upstream

Use the now exposed real SMT state, not the SMT sysfs control knob
state. This reflects the state of the system when the mitigation status is
queried.

This does not change the warning in the VMX launch code. There the
dependency on the control knob makes sense because siblings could be
brought online anytime after launching the VM.
