x86/speculation: Remove the extra #ifdef around CALL_NOSPEC
Commit:
010c4a461c1d ("x86/speculation: Simplify and make CALL_NOSPEC consistent")
added an #ifdef CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE around the CALL_NOSPEC definition.
This is not required as this code is already under a larger #ifdef.
Remove the extra #ifdef, no functional change.
vmlinux size remains same before and after this change:
CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE=y:
text data bss dec hex filename
25434752 7342290 2301212 35078254 217406e vmlinux.before
25434752 7342290 2301212 35078254 217406e vmlinux.after
# CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE is not set:
text data bss dec hex filename
22943094 6214994 1550152 30708240 1d49210 vmlinux.before
22943094 6214994 1550152 30708240 1d49210 vmlinux.after
