[SRU][Bionic][PATCH 0/6] Bionic: Sync to Xenial (Spectre) (LP: #1822760)

[Juerg Haefliger]

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1822760

== SRU Justification ==

There are a couple of Spectre related commits in Xenial that never landed in Bionic. Fix that to prevent a regression when upgrading from Xenial to Bionic.

== Regression Potential ==

Low. These are not very intrusive commits that have been in upstream for quite a while.

== Fix ==

Backport the relevant commits from upstream.

== Test Case ==

TBD.

Compile-tested all architectures.
