It seems helpful to expose to userspace some speculation control features
from 0x80000008_EBX function:
* 16 bit. IBRS always on. Indicates whether processor prefers that
IBRS is always on. It simplifies speculation managing.
Spec say bit 16 is reserved.
16 Reserved

* 18 bit. IBRS is preferred over software solution. Indicates that
software mitigations can be replaced with more performant IBRS.
* 19 bit. IBRS provides Same Mode Protection. Indicates that when IBRS
is set indirect branch predictions are not influenced by any prior
indirect branches.
* 29 bit. BTC_NO. Indicates that processor isn't affected by branch type
confusion. It's used during mitigations setting up.
* 30 bit. IBPB clears return address predictor. It's used during
mitigations setting up.
