4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Zhenzhong Duan zhenzhong.duan@xxxxxxxxxx commit 4cd24de3a0980bf3100c9dcb08ef65ca7c31af48 upstream Since retpoline capable compilers are widely available, make CONFIG_RETPOLINE hard depend on the compiler capability. Break the build when CONFIG_RETPOLINE is enabled and the compiler does not support it. Emit an error message in that case: "arch/x86/Makefile:226: *** You are building kernel with non-retpoline compiler, please update your compiler.. Stop."
