commit 8e2906245f1e3b0d027169d9f2e55ce0548cb96e upstream. In order for the kernel to protect itself, let's call the SSBD mitigation implemented by the higher exception level (either hypervisor or firmware) on each transition between userspace and kernel. We must take the PSCI conduit into account in order to target the right exception level, hence the introduction of a runtime patching callback.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
