  Subject: [PATCH 1/3] sysfs/cpu: Add vulnerability folder

  As the meltdown/spectre problem affects several CPU architectures, it makes
  sense to have common way to express whether a system is affected by a
  particular vulnerability or not. If affected the way to express the
  mitigation should be common as well.

  Create /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities folder and files for
  meltdown, spectre_v1 and spectre_v2.
