Subject: [PATCH v3 14/16] x86,bugs: Unconditionally allow spectre_v2=retpoline,amd
Date: Tue, 26 Oct 2021 14:01:46 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211026120310.487348118@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20211026120132.613201817@infradead.org
Currently Linux prevents usage of retpoline,amd on !AMD hardware, this
is unfriendly and gets in the way of testing. Remove this restriction.
