[PATCH v2 0/7] x86/alternatives: Adjust all insn-relative fields



Alternatives have had a reasonably severe restriction since their
introduction.  This has been the source of several bugs, and several
inefficiencies particularly in the speculative safety paths.

v2:
  Most work is in patch 1 and the new patch 2 (userspace harness).  Other
  patches with minor or no change.

Andrew Cooper (7):
  x86: Introduce x86_decode_lite()
  tests/x86: Introduce a userspace test harness for x86_decode_lite()
  x86/alternative: Walk all replacements during self tests
  x86/alternative: Indent the relocation logic
  x86/alternative: Replace a continue with a goto
  x86/alternative: Relocate all insn-relative fields
  x86/spec-ctrl: Introduce and use DO_COND_BHB_SEQ
