Merge tag 'x86_urgent_for_v6.8_rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 fixes from Borislav Petkov:

 - Make sure clearing CPU buffers using VERW happens at the latest
   possible point in the return-to-userspace path, otherwise memory
   accesses after the VERW execution could cause data to land in CPU
   buffers again

* tag 'x86_urgent_for_v6.8_rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  KVM/VMX: Move VERW closer to VMentry for MDS mitigation
  KVM/VMX: Use BT+JNC, i.e. EFLAGS.CF to select VMRESUME vs. VMLAUNCH
  x86/bugs: Use ALTERNATIVE() instead of mds_user_clear static key
  x86/entry_32: Add VERW just before userspace transition
  x86/entry_64: Add VERW just before userspace transition
  x86/bugs: Add asm helpers for executing VERW
