[PATCH 5.10 2/4] x86/speculation: Simplify and make CALL_NOSPEC consistent

[Suraj Jitindar Singh <surajjs@amazon.com>]

From: Pawan Gupta <pawan.kumar.gupta@linux.intel.com>

commit cfceff8526a426948b53445c02bcb98453c7330d upstream.

CALL_NOSPEC macro is used to generate Spectre-v2 mitigation friendly
indirect branches. At compile time the macro defaults to indirect branch,
and at runtime those can be patched to thunk based mitigations.

This approach is opposite of what is done for the rest of the kernel, where
the compile time default is to replace indirect calls with retpoline thunk
calls.

Make CALL_NOSPEC consistent with the rest of the kernel, default to
retpoline thunk at compile time when CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE is
enabled.
