[PATCH 2/3] x86/retpoline: Simplify vmexit_fill_RSB()
From: David Woodhouse
Date: Sat Jan 27 2018 - 11:24:57 EST
From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxxxx>
Simplify it to call an asm-function instead of pasting 41 insn bytes at
every call site. Also, add alignment to the macro as suggested here:

[dwmw2: Clean up comments, let it clobber %ebx and just tell the compiler]
