commit c47e4d04ba0f1ea17353d85d45f611277507e07a upstream.
Spectre-BHB needs to add sequences to the vectors. Having one global
set of vectors is a problem for big/little systems where the sequence
is costly on cpus that are not vulnerable.
Making the vectors per-cpu in the style of KVM's bh_harden_hyp_vecs
requires the vectors to be generated by macros.
Make the kpti remapping of the kernel optional so the macros can be
used without kpti.

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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
