x86/cpu-policy: Derive RSBA/RRSBA for guest policies
The RSBA bit, "RSB Alternative", means that the RSB may use alternative
predictors when empty. From a practical point of view, this mean "Retpoline
not safe".
Enhanced IBRS (officially IBRS_ALL in Intel's docs, previously IBRS_ATT) is
a
statement that IBRS is implemented in hardware (as opposed to the form
retrofitted to existing CPUs in microcode).
The RRSBA bit, "Restricted-RSBA", is a combination of RSBA, and the eIBRS
property that predictions are tagged with the mode in which they were
learnt.
Therefore, it means "when eIBRS is active, the RSB may fall back to
alternative predictors but restricted to the current prediction mode". As
such, it's stronger statement than RSBA, but still means "Retpoline not
safe".
CPUs are not expected to enumerate both RSBA and RRSBA.
Add feature dependencies for EIBRS and RRSBA. While technically they're not
linked, absolutely nothing good can come of letting the guest see RRSBA
without EIBRS. Nor a guest seeing EIBRS without IBRSB. Furthermore, we use
this dependency to simplify the max derivation logic.
The max policies gets RSBA and RRSBA unconditionally set (with the EIBRS
dependency maybe hiding RRSBA). We can run any VM, even if it has been told
"somewhere you might run, Retpoline isn't safe".
The default policies are more complicated. A guest shouldn't see both bits,
but it needs to see one if the current host suffers from any form of RSBA,
and
which bit it needs to see depends on whether eIBRS is visible or not.
Therefore, the calculation must be performed after sanitise_featureset().
