Josh Poimboeuf 469d9b1570 x86/bugs: Do IBPB fallback check only once
commit 0fe4aeea9c01baabecc8c3afc7889c809d939bc2 upstream.

When booting with retbleed=auto, if the kernel wasn't built with
CONFIG_CC_HAS_RETURN_THUNK, the mitigation falls back to IBPB.  Make
sure a warning is printed in that case.  The IBPB fallback check is done
twice, but it really only needs to be done once.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
