[PATCH] x86/retpoline: check CONFIG_RETPOLINE option when SPECTRE_V2_CMD_AUTO

[Chen Baozi]

Currently, if there is no spectre_v2= or nospectre_v2 specified in the boot
parameter, the kernel will automatically choose mitigation by default.
However, when selecting the auto mode, it doesn't check whether the
retpoline has been built in the kernel. Thus, if someone built a kernel
without CONFIG_RETPOLINE and booted the system without specifying any
spectre_v2 kernel parameters, the kernel would still report that it has
enabled a minimal retpoline mitigation which is not the case. This patch
adds the checking of CONFIG_RETPOLINE option under the 'auto' mode to fix
it.
