From: Diana Craciun <diana.craciun@xxxxxxx> commit 10c5e83afd4a3f01712d97d3bb1ae34d5b74a185 upstream. In order to protect against speculation attacks on indirect branches, the branch predictor is flushed at kernel entry to protect for the following situations: - userspace process attacking another userspace process - userspace process attacking the kernel Basically when the privillege level change (i.e. the kernel is entered), the branch predictor state is flushed.
