[PATCH] x86/cpuid: Fix up "virtual" IBRS/IBPB/STIBP feature bits on Intel

From: David Woodhouse
Date: Mon Jan 29 2018 - 18:49:54 EST


Despite the fact that all the other code there seems to be doing it,
just using set_cpu_cap() in early_intel_init() doesn't actually work.

When the CPU is queried again in identify_boot_cpu(), it all gets
overwritten again. Do it in init_scattered_cpuid_features() instead.

Turning the bits off for bad microcode can use setup_clear_cpu_cap()
to force them off for all CPUs; I was less keen on forcing the feature
bits *on* that way.

I feel I must be missing something. Is the rest of early_init_intel() broken too?
