UBUNTU: SAUCE: x86/bugs/AMD: Add support to disable RDS on Fam[15,16,17]h if requested
CVE-2018-3639 (x86) AMD does not need the Speculative Store Bypass mitigation to be enabled. The parameters for this are already available and can be done via MSR C001_1020. Each family uses a different bit in that MSR for this. [ tglx: Expose the bit mask via a variable and move the actual MSR fiddling into the bugs code as that's the right thing to do and also required to prepare for dynamic enable/disable ] Suggested-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> [tyhicks: Minor backport for context] Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Bader <stefan.bader@canonical.com> [juergh: Context adjustments.] Signed-off-by: Juerg Haefliger <juergh@canonical.com>
