[Bug 1759152] [NEW] Spectre related Compiler updates

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

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.
