From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Dec 04 2018 - 06:19:31 EST


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

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

From: Jiri Kosina jkosina@xxxxxxx

commit bb4b3b7762735cdaba5a40fd94c9303d9ffa147a upstream

If spectrev2 mitigation has been enabled, RSB is filled on context switch
in order to protect from various classes of spectrev2 attacks.

If this mitigation is enabled, say so in sysfs for spectrev2.
