[ Upstream commit 4253b0e0627ee3461e64c2495c616f1c8f6b127b ] The nospec-branch.c file is compiled without the gcc options to generate expoline thunks. The return branch of the sysfs show functions cpu_show_spectre_v1 and cpu_show_spectre_v2 is an indirect branch as well. These need to be compiled with expolines. Move the sysfs functions for spectre reporting to a separate file and loose an '.' for one of the messages.

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.
