Subject: x86/retpoline: Simplify vmexit_fill_RSB() From: Borislav Petkov bp@alien8.de Date: Sat Jan 27 16:24:33 2018 +0000
From: Borislav Petkov bp@alien8.de
commit 1dde7415e99933bb7293d6b2843752cbdb43ec11
Simplify it to call an asm-function instead of pasting 41 insn bytes at every call site. Also, add alignment to the macro as suggested here:

[dwmw2: Clean up comments, let it clobber %ebx and just tell the compiler]
