Pull x86 pti fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A small set of fixes for the meltdown/spectre mitigations:
- Make kprobes aware of retpolines to prevent probes in the retpoline
thunks.
- Make the machine check exception speculation protected. MCE used to
issue an indirect call directly from the ASM entry code. Convert
that to a direct call into a C-function and issue the indirect call
from there so the compiler can add the retpoline protection,
- Make the vmexit_fill_RSB() assembly less stupid
- Fix a typo in the PTI documentation"

kprobes/x86: Disable optimizing on the function jumps to indirect thunk
kprobes/x86: Blacklist indirect thunk functions for kprobes
retpoline: Introduce start/end markers of indirect thunk
