Subject: [PATCH v4 11/13] x86/fsgsbase/64: Enable FSGSBASE by default and add a chicken bit
Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2019 14:48:47 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190116224849.8617-12-chang.seok.bae@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190116224849.8617-1-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.
