SubjectRe: [PATCH v3 04/37] x86/cpufeatures: Enable CET CR4 bit for shadow stack

Sounds like I need to school that "suggestor" about clearcpuid. :)

For example, when doing this:

1625c833db93 ("x86/cpu: Allow feature bit names from /proc/cpuinfo in clearcpuid=")

I even managed to prevent the kernel from booting. So clearcpuid= is
definitely not for general consumption.

So as said, please remove it from your whole patchset's text.

Thx.
