Subject: x86/bugs: Do not enable IBPB at firmware entry when IBPB is not
 available
Git-commit: 571c30b1a88465a1c85a6f7762609939b9085a15
Patch-mainline: v5.19
References: git-fixes

Some cloud hypervisors do not provide IBPB on very recent CPU processors,
including AMD processors affected by Retbleed.

Using IBPB before firmware calls on such systems would cause a GPF at boot
like the one below. Do not enable such calls when IBPB support is not
present.
