AMD's initial implementation of IBPB did not clear the return address predictor. Beginning with Zen4, AMD's IBPB *does* clear the return address predictor. This behavior is enumerated by CPUID.80000008H:EBX.IBPB_RET[bit 30]. Define X86_FEATURE_AMD_IBPB_RET for use in KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID, when determining cross-vendor capabilities.
