[PATCH v2] Correct use of IBRS_ATT name, should be IBRS_ALL
From: Darren Kenny
Date: Mon Feb 05 2018 - 09:57:22 EST
Fixes a comment in commit 117cc7a908c83697b0b737d15ae1eb5943afe35b
("x86/retpoline: Fill return stack buffer on vmexit")
While the original name was "IBRS All The Time" (IBRS_ATT),
the publicly documented name is IBRS_ALL, we should be using that.
