[PATCH 4.14 029/107] powerpc/64s: Enhance the information in cpu_show_spectre_v1()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Apr 01 2019 - 13:21:24 EST


4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michal Suchanek <msuchanek@xxxxxxx>

commit a377514519b9a20fa1ea9adddbb4129573129cef upstream.

We now have barrier_nospec as mitigation so print it in
cpu_show_spectre_v1() when enabled.
