Subject: [PATCH v5 4/9] x86/bugs: Use an x86 feature to track the MMIO Stale Data mitigation
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2025 15:37:41 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251113233746.1703361-5-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251113233746.1703361-1-seanjc@google.com>

Convert the MMIO Stale Data mitigation tracking from a static branch into
an x86 feature flag so that it can be used via ALTERNATIVE_2 in KVM.

No functional change intended.
