#     powerpc/64s: Add support for a store forwarding barrier at kernel entry/exit
#     
#     commit a048a07d7f4535baa4cbad6bc024f175317ab938 upstream.
#     
#     On some CPUs we can prevent a vulnerability related to store-to-load
#     forwarding by preventing store forwarding between privilege domains,
#     by inserting a barrier in kernel entry and exit paths.
#     
#     This is known to be the case on at least Power7, Power8 and Power9
#     powerpc CPUs.
#     
#     Barriers must be inserted generally before the first load after moving
#     to a higher privilege, and after the last store before moving to a
#     lower privilege, HV and PR privilege transitions must be protected.
#     
#     Barriers are added as patch sections, with all kernel/hypervisor entry
#     points patched, and the exit points to lower privilge levels patched
#     similarly to the RFI flush patching.
#     
#     Firmware advertisement is not implemented yet, so CPU flush types
#     are hard coded.
#     
#     Thanks to Michal Suchánek for bug fixes and review.
