-Subject: [PATCH 14/14] x86/speculation: Move
- firmware_restrict_branch_speculation_*() from C to CPP
-
-commit d72f4e29e6d84b7ec02ae93088aa459ac70e733b upstream.
-
-firmware_restrict_branch_speculation_*() recently started using
-preempt_enable()/disable(), but those are relatively high level
-primitives and cause build failures on some 32-bit builds.
-
-Since we want to keep <asm/nospec-branch.h> low level, convert
-them to macros to avoid header hell...
