[ Upstream commit 8c1e3d2bb44cbb998cb28ff9a18f105fee7f1eb3 ]

Ensure we are always able to detect whether or not the CPU is affected
by Spectre-v2, so that we can later advertise this to userspace.

This breaks when building, because __hardenbp_enab is declared in the next patch:

$ make -j32 defconfig && make -j32

[..]

Indeed, but as discussed, this matches the state of both mainline and
v4.19, which carry these patches in the same [wrong] order as well.

Greg should confirm, but as I understand it, it is preferred to be
bug-compatible with mainline rather than fixing problems when spotting
them while doing the backport.

Is it just patch ordering? If so I'd rather fix it, there's no reason to
carry this issue into the stable trees.

We reserve "bug compatibility" for functional issues that are not yet
fixed upstream, it doesn't seem to be the case here.

The patches don't apply cleanly in the opposite order.

What we could do is squash the two patches together. That way, we
avoid the breakage without having to modify the patches in order to be
able to apply them.

No, don't do that.  Just take all of the needed commits.

Right, just make the patches apply in reverse, this shouldn't be more
than moving some code from the 2nd patch back to the 1st one, right?

We usually don't do this in stable backports, but there are three good
reasons to do it here:

1. It'll be nice to maintain bisectability.
2. The end result should be exactly the same, so there's no room for
error here.
3. It's a backport for an older kernel to begin with, so there are
changes from upstream already.
