    x86/retpoline: Remove compile time warning · b8b9ce4b
    Thomas Gleixner 提交于
    Remove the compile time warning when CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y and the compiler
    does not have retpoline support. Linus rationale for this is:
    
      It's wrong because it will just make people turn off RETPOLINE, and the
      asm updates - and return stack clearing - that are independent of the
      compiler are likely the most important parts because they are likely the
      ones easiest to target.
    
      And it's annoying because most people won't be able to do anything about
      it. The number of people building their own compiler? Very small. So if
      their distro hasn't got a compiler yet (and pretty much nobody does), the
      warning is just annoying crap.
    
      It is already properly reported as part of the sysfs interface. The
      compile-time warning only encourages bad things.
