[PATCH v2 2/2] retpolines: Remove minimal stuff in retpoline support

From: Zhenzhong Duan
Date: Thu Nov 01 2018 - 05:32:25 EST


Now that CONFIG_RETPOLINE hard depends on compiler support, there is no
reason for minimal stuff to still exist.

This change is based on suggestion in https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/9/18/1016
