[PATCH RFC 4/5] s390/speculation: Add support for 'cpu_spec_mitigations=' cmdline options

Josh Poimboeuf
2019-04-04T16:44:14Z

Configure s390 runtime CPU speculation bug mitigations in accordance
with the 'cpu_spec_mitigations=' cmdline options. This affects Spectre
v1 and Spectre v2.

The default behavior is unchanged.
