[PATCH 2/3] x86/bugs: Fix BHI retpoline check

From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Fri Apr 12 2024 - 14:10:57 EST


Confusingly, X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE doesn't mean retpolines are enabled,
as it also includes the original "AMD retpoline" which isn't a retpoline
at all.

Also replace cpu_feature_enabled() with boot_cpu_has() because this is
before alternatives are patched and cpu_feature_enabled()'s fallback
path is slower than plain old boot_cpu_has().

Fixes: ec9404e40e8f ("x86/bhi: Add BHI mitigation knob")
