[PATCH 4.4 19/53] x86/retpoline: Fill return stack buffer on vmexit

Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk>

commit 117cc7a908c83697b0b737d15ae1eb5943afe35b upstream.

In accordance with the Intel and AMD documentation, we need to overwrite
all entries in the RSB on exiting a guest, to prevent malicious branch
target predictions from affecting the host kernel. This is needed both
for retpoline and for IBRS.

[ak: numbers again for the RSB stuffing labels]
