Linus Torvalds ade8ff3b6a - AMD Zen CPUs before gen 4 do not flush the RAS (Return Address Stack)
as part of IBPB. Make sure that happens by doing the flushing in
   software on those generations

Pull x86 IBPB fixes from Borislav Petkov:
 "This fixes the IBPB implementation of older AMDs (< gen4) that do not
  flush the RSB (Return Address Stack) so you can still do some leaking
  when using a "=ibpb" mitigation for Retbleed or SRSO. Fix it by doing
  the flushing in software on those generations.

  IBPB is not the default setting so this is not likely to affect
  anybody in practice"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
