[PATCH V5 16/50] x86/traps: Add fence_swapgs_{user,kernel}_entry()

From: Lai Jiangshan
Date: Wed Nov 10 2021 - 06:59:15 EST


From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

fence_swapgs_{user,kernel}_entry() in entry64.c are the same as
the ASM macro FENCE_SWAPGS_{USER,KERNEL}_ENTRY.

fence_swapgs_user_entry is used in the user entry swapgs code path,
to prevent a speculative swapgs when coming from kernel space.

fence_swapgs_kernel_entry is used in the kernel entry code path,
to prevent the swapgs from getting speculatively skipped when
coming from user space.
