Subject[PATCH v2 1/2] KVM: x86: use native MSR ops for SPEC_CTRL
Date
Having a paravirt indirect call in the IBRS restore path is not a
good idea, since we are trying to protect from speculative execution
of bogus indirect branch targets. It is also slower, so use
native_wrmsrl on the vmentry path too.
