4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 21e433bdb95bdf3aa48226fd3d33af608437f293 upstream. Harmonize all the Spectre messages so that a: dmesg | grep -i spectre ... gives us most Spectre related kernel boot messages. Also fix a few other details: - clarify a comment about firmware speculation control - s/KPTI/PTI - remove various line-breaks that made the code uglier Acked-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.
