Peter Zijlstra 089dd8e531 x86/speculation: Change FILL_RETURN_BUFFER to work with objtool
Change FILL_RETURN_BUFFER so that objtool groks it and can generate
correct ORC unwind information.

 - Since ORC is alternative invariant; that is, all alternatives
   should have the same ORC entries, the __FILL_RETURN_BUFFER body
   can not be part of an alternative.

   Therefore, move it out of the alternative and keep the alternative
   as a sort of jump_label around it.

 - Use the ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL annotation to white-list
   these 'funny' call instructions to nowhere.

 - Use UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY to 'fill' the speculation traps, otherwise
   objtool will consider them unreachable.

 - Move the RSP adjustment into the loop, such that the loop has a
   deterministic stack layout.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
