[PATCH 4.4 205/266] x86/speculation: Disable STIBP when enhanced IBRS is in use

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Tim Chen <tim.c.chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 34bce7c9690b1d897686aac89604ba7adc365556 upstream.

If enhanced IBRS is active, STIBP is redundant for mitigating Spectre v2
user space exploits from hyperthread sibling.

Disable STIBP when enhanced IBRS is used.
