[RFC] x86/retpoline: Add clang support for 64-bit builds
From: Guenter Roeck
Date: Fri Feb 02 2018 - 18:30:56 EST
clang has its own set of compiler options for retpoline support.
Also, the thunks required by C code have their own function names.
For 64-bit builds, there is only a single thunk, which is easy
to support. Support for 32-bit builds is more complicated - in
addition to various register thunks, there is also a thunk
named __llvm_external_retpoline_push which is more challenging.
Play it safe and only support 64-bit clang builds for now.

Sent as RFC because I am not sure if the 64-bit only solution
is acceptable.
