Subject: x86: Introduce barrier_nospec
Git-commit: b3d7ad85b80bbc404635dca80f5b129f6242bc7a
Patch-mainline: v4.16-rc1
References: bsc#1068032 CVE-2017-5753
Rename the open coded form of this instruction sequence from
rdtsc_ordered() into a generic barrier primitive, barrier_nospec().
One of the mitigations for Spectre variant1 vulnerabilities is to fence
speculative execution after successfully validating a bounds check. I.e.
force the result of a bounds check to resolve in the instruction pipeline
to ensure speculative execution honors that result before potentially
operating on out-of-bounds data.
No functional changes.
