Subject: [v3 10/12] x86/fsgsbase/64: Enable FSGSBASE by default and add a chicken bit
Date: Tue, 23 Oct 2018 11:42:32 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181023184234.14025-11-chang.seok.bae@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181023184234.14025-1-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>

Now that FSGSBASE is fully supported, remove unsafe_fsgsbase, enable
FSGSBASE by default, and add nofsgsbase to disable it.
