[PATCH 2/3] x86/bugs: Add a separate config for missing mitigation

From: Breno Leitao
Date: Thu Jan 18 2024 - 12:33:06 EST


Currently, the CONFIG_SPECULATION_MITIGATIONS is halfway populated,
where some mitigations have entries in Kconfig, and they could be
modified, while others mitigations do not have Kconfig entries, and
could not be controlled at build time.

Create an entry for each CPU mitigation under
CONFIG_SPECULATION_MITIGATIONS. This allow users to enable or disable
them at compilation time.

+ that would otherwise be inaccessible.
