*groan*, indeed. I just went and looked that up. I missed this one in
all the other fuss :/
So per:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/support/us/en/documents/processors/mitigations-jump-conditional-code-erratum.pdf
the toolchain mitigations only work if the offset in the ifetch window
(32 bytes) is preserved. Which seems to suggest we ought to align all
functions to 32byte before randomizing it, otherwise we're almost
guaranteed to change this offset by the act of randomizing.
