Pull x86 RFDS mitigation from Dave Hansen:
"RFDS is a CPU vulnerability that may allow a malicious userspace to
infer stale register values from kernel space. Kernel registers can
have all kinds of secrets in them so the mitigation is basically to
wait until the kernel is about to return to userspace and has user
values in the registers. At that point there is little chance of
kernel secrets ending up in the registers and the microarchitectural
state can be cleared.
This leverages some recent robustness fixes for the existing MDS
vulnerability. Both MDS and RFDS use the VERW instruction for
mitigation"
