[Patch v6 05/16] x86/speculation: Reorganize speculation control MSRs update

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The logic to detect whether there's a change in the previous
and next task's flag relevant to update speculation control
MSRs are spread out across multiple functions.

Consolidate all checks needed for updating speculation
control MSRs to __speculation_ctrl_update().

This makes it easy to pick the right speculation control MSR,
and the bits in the MSR that needs updating based on
TIF flags changes.
