[PATCH] x86/speculation: Remove the extra ifdef around CALL_NOSPEC

[Pawan Gupta]

Commit 010c4a461c1d ("x86/speculation: Simplify and make CALL_NOSPEC
consistent") added an ifdef CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE around the
CALL_NOSPEC definition. This is not required as this code is already under
a larger ifdef.

Remove the extra ifdef, no functional change.

vmlinux size remains same before and after this change.

CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE=y:
    text	   data	    bss	    dec		hex	filename
25434752	7342290	2301212	35078254	217406e	vmlinux.before
25434752	7342290	2301212	35078254	217406e	vmlinux.after

 # CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE is not set:
    text	   data	    bss	    dec		hex	filename
22943094	6214994	1550152	30708240	1d49210	vmlinux.before
22943094	6214994	1550152	30708240	1d49210	vmlinux.after
