Same here... Bisected to ac41e90d8daa ("x86/srso: Add a Speculative RAS Overflow mitigation"), so adding in Borislav.
Thanks for the report. We're tracking this here https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1907 It was pointed out that PeterZ has a series reworking this code entirely: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230809071218.000335006@infradead.org/

That's troubling if stable is already picking up patches that are breaking the build!

As I pointed out in that issue, I don't think that series helps us with this issue but I will try to test shortly (the patches did not apply cleanly but I have not looked into why yet).

Those patches are already released in stable, they were basically released at the same time as they were merged into mainline:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/?h=linu... https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/?h=linu... https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/?h=linu... https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/?h=linu...
