Branch History Injection (BHI) attacks may allow a malicious application to
influence indirect branch prediction in kernel by poisoning the branch
history. eIBRS isolates indirect branch targets in ring0. The BHB can
still influence the choice of indirect branch predictor entry, and although
branch predictor entries are isolated between modes when eIBRS is enabled,
the BHB itself is not isolated between modes.
Add mitigations against it either with the help of microcode or with
software sequences for the affected CPUs.

Pull x86 mitigations from Thomas Gleixner:
"Mitigations for the native BHI hardware vulnerabilty:
Branch History Injection (BHI) attacks may allow a malicious
application to influence indirect branch prediction in kernel by
poisoning the branch history. eIBRS isolates indirect branch targets
in ring0. The BHB can still influence the choice of indirect branch
predictor entry, and although branch predictor entries are isolated
between modes when eIBRS is enabled, the BHB itself is not isolated
between modes.
Add mitigations against it either with the help of microcode or with
software sequences for the affected CPUs"
[ This also ends up enabling the full mitigation by default despite the
system call hardening, because apparently there are other indirect
calls that are still sufficiently reachable, and the 'auto' case just
isn't hardened enough.
We'll have some more inevitable tweaking in the future - Linus ]
