Subject[v4.17-rcx] Lost IBPB, IBRS_FW support for spectre_v2 mitigation.
Hi,

In v4.16 I already had support for BPB, IBRS_FW for spectre_v2 mitigation.
But this went away in v17-rcx.

With 4.16 I have:
jojo@fichte:~$ cd /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities; grep ".*" *
meltdown:Mitigation: PTI
spectre_v1:Mitigation: __user pointer sanitization
spectre_v2:Mitigation: Full generic retpoline, IBPB, IBRS_FW

With 4.17-rcx I have:
meltdown:Mitigation: PTI
spectre_v1:Mitigation: __user pointer sanitization
spectre_v2:Mitigation: Full generic retpoline

Processor is
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 6
model : 60
model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4200M CPU @ 2.50GHz
stepping : 3
microcode : 0x24


The problem goes away if I revert:
d94a155 x86/cpu: Prevent cpuinfo_x86::x86_phys_bits adjustment corruption

Thanks, Jörg
