Subject: [PATCH] intel_idle: update spec_ctrl register only when necessary
Date: Tue,  6 Feb 2024 15:14:52 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240206071452.42673-1-lirongqing@baidu.com> (raw)

spec_ctrl maybe 0 when mitigations is off, and writing spec_ctrl MSR
is expensive operation, so update spec_ctrl only when necessary
