3.16.68-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
commit c0ccf6f99e3a43b87980c9df7da48427885206d0 upstream.
To use jump labels in assembly we need the HAVE_JUMP_LABEL
define, so we select a fallback version if the toolchain does
not support them.
Modify linux/jump_label.h so it can be included by assembly
files. We also need to add -DCC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO to KBUILD_AFLAGS.

3.16.68-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
commit 55dd0df781e58ec23d218376ea4a676e7362a98c upstream.
Wrap asm/jump_label.h for all archs with #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__.
Since these are kernel only headers, we don't need #ifdef
__KERNEL__ so can simplify things a bit.
If an architecture wants to use jump labels in assembly, it
will still need to define a macro to create the __jump_table
entries (see ARCH_STATIC_BRANCH in the powerpc asm/jump_label.h
for an example).

3.16.68-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com>
commit 98af8452945c55652de68536afdde3b520fec429 upstream.
Keeping track of the number of mitigations for all the CPU speculation
bugs has become overwhelming for many users. It's getting more and more
complicated to decide which mitigations are needed for a given
architecture. Complicating matters is the fact that each arch tends to
have its own custom way to mitigate the same vulnerability.
Most users fall into a few basic categories:
a) they want all mitigations off;
b) they want all reasonable mitigations on, with SMT enabled even if
it's vulnerable; or
c) they want all reasonable mitigations on, with SMT disabled if
vulnerable.
Define a set of curated, arch-independent options, each of which is an
aggregation of existing options:
- mitigations=off: Disable all mitigations.
- mitigations=auto: [default] Enable all the default mitigations, but
leave SMT enabled, even if it's vulnerable.
- mitigations=auto,nosmt: Enable all the default mitigations, disabling
SMT if needed by a mitigation.
Currently, these options are placeholders which don't actually do
anything. They will be fleshed out in upcoming patches.
