    x86/speculation: Reorganize speculation control MSRs update · 01daf568
    Tim Chen authored
    The logic to detect whether there's a change in the previous and next
    task's flag relevant to update speculation control MSRs is spread out
    across multiple functions.
    
    Consolidate all checks needed for updating speculation control MSRs into
    the new __speculation_ctrl_update() helper function.
    
    This makes it easy to pick the right speculation control MSR and the bits
    in MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL that need updating based on TIF flags changes.
