[PATCH v1 1/2] x86/speculation/spectre_v2: Exclude Zhaoxin CPUs from SPECTRE_V2

From: Tony W Wang-oc
Date: Thu Jan 16 2020 - 21:24:12 EST


New Zhaoxin family 7 CPUs are not affected by SPECTRE_V2. So create
a separate cpu_vuln_whitelist flag bit NO_SPECTRE_V2 and add these
CPUs to the cpu vulnerability whitelist.
