[PATCH 20/35] x86: Force asm-goto

[Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>]

[-- Attachment #1: peterz-x86-force-asm-goto.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1867 bytes --]

Now that we have objtool to validate the correctness of asm-goto
constructs we can start using it to guarantee the absence of dynamic
branches (and thus speculation).

A primary prerequisite for this is of course that the compiler
supports asm-goto. This effecively lifts the minimum GCC version to
build an x86 kernel to gcc-4.5.
