Bug description:
  This is a backport of the parts relevant for the Linux kernel build.
  It does not include inline thunks and function attributes.

  The patch has been tested with the 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.9 GCC package
  from Ubuntu 16.04.04. There are no testsuite regressions.

  The related upstream revision is: r257489 (Spectre #2 mitigation)

  The bugfix r257522 is NOT relevant for the GCC 5 backport since it was
  a problem related to the function attributes.
