x86 mitigations for the native BHI hardware vulnerabilty:

Branch History Injection (BHI) attacks may allow a malicious application to
 influence indirect branch prediction in kernel by poisoning the branch
 history. eIBRS isolates indirect branch targets in ring0.  The BHB can
 still influence the choice of indirect branch predictor entry, and although
 branch predictor entries are isolated between modes when eIBRS is enabled,
 the BHB itself is not isolated between modes.
 
 Add mitigations against it either with the help of microcode or with
 software sequences for the affected CPUs.

 "Mitigations for the native BHI hardware vulnerabilty:

  Branch History Injection (BHI) attacks may allow a malicious
  application to influence indirect branch prediction in kernel by
  poisoning the branch history. eIBRS isolates indirect branch targets
  in ring0. The BHB can still influence the choice of indirect branch
  predictor entry, and although branch predictor entries are isolated
  between modes when eIBRS is enabled, the BHB itself is not isolated
  between modes.

  Add mitigations against it either with the help of microcode or with
  software sequences for the affected CPUs"

[ This also ends up enabling the full mitigation by default despite the
  system call hardening, because apparently there are other indirect
  calls that are still sufficiently reachable, and the 'auto' case just
  isn't hardened enough.

  We'll have some more inevitable tweaking in the future    - Linus ]
