x86/speculation: Add a conditional CS prefix to CALL_NOSPEC
Retpoline mitigation for spectre-v2 uses thunks for indirect branches. To support this mitigation compilers add a CS prefix with -mindirect-branch-cs-prefix. For an indirect branch in asm, this needs to be added manually. CS prefix is already being added to indirect branches in asm files, but not in inline asm. Add CS prefix to CALL_NOSPEC for inline asm as well. There is no JMP_NOSPEC for inline asm. Reported-by:Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org> Signed-off-by:
