commit 946fbbc1 upstream.

vmx_vcpu_run() and svm_vcpu_run() are large functions, and giving
branch hints to the compiler can actually make a substantial cycle
difference by keeping the fast path contiguous in memory.

With this optimization, the retpoline-guest/retpoline-host case is
about 50 cycles faster.
