s/will probably end up/ended up/

:/sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities# cat spectre_v2 
Mitigation: Full AMD retpoline
:/sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities# uname -a
Linux localhost 4.9.76-rc1+ #2 SMP Tue Jan 9 17:37:55 GMT 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

passes basic smoke testing so far; will audit it and check for
additional indirect branches which didn't exist in 4.14, tomorrow. And
continue to 4.4 and 3.2 kernels too.

We will also backport the IBRS patches on top, once they're ready.

What we *haven't* included is PTI-specific changes, like (to pick a
