From: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit aa77bfb354c495fc4361199e63fc5765b9e1e783 ]
STIBP stands for Single Thread Indirect Branch Predictors. The acronym, however, can be easily mis-spelled as STIPB. It is perhaps due to the presence of another related term - IBPB (Indirect Branch Predictor Barrier).
Fix the mis-spelling in the code.
