[PATCH 4.4 091/107] x86/speculation: Rework speculative_store_bypass_update()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jul 23 2018 - 08:49:51 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0270be3e34efb05a88bc4c422572ece038ef3608 upstream

The upcoming support for the virtual SPEC_CTRL MSR on AMD needs to reuse
speculative_store_bypass_update() to avoid code duplication. Add an
argument for supplying a thread info (TIF) value and create a wrapper
speculative_store_bypass_update_current() which is used at the existing
call site.
