------------------ From: Zhenzhong Duan zhenzhong.d...@oracle.com commit ef014aae8f1cd2793e4e014bbb102bed53f852b7 upstream Now that CONFIG_RETPOLINE hard depends on compiler support, there is no reason to keep the minimal retpoline support around which only provided basic protection in the assembly files.
