[PATCH 3.16 051/131] x86/cpufeatures: Show KAISER in cpuinfo

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sat Sep 29 2018 - 17:52:47 EST


3.16.59-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I noticed that in the upstream kernel PTI is exposed in /proc/cpuinfo
and in the 4.4 and 4.9 stable branches KAISER is exposed similarly,
but for some reason the backport to 3.16 hid it. Change to match the
other branches.
