4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Dou Liyang [email protected] commit 9471eee9186a46893726e22ebb54cade3f9bc043 The spectre_v2 option 'auto' does not check whether CONFIG_RETPOLINE is enabled. As a consequence it fails to emit the appropriate warning and sets feature flags which have no effect at all. Add the missing IS_ENABLED() check.
