4.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Dan Williams dan.j.williams@intel.com

commit b3d7ad85b80bbc404635dca80f5b129f6242bc7a

Rename the open coded form of this instruction sequence from
rdtsc_ordered() into a generic barrier primitive, barrier_nospec().

One of the mitigations for Spectre variant1 vulnerabilities is to fence
speculative execution after successfully validating a bounds check. I.e.
force the result of a bounds check to resolve in the instruction pipeline
to ensure speculative execution honors that result before potentially
operating on out-of-bounds data.

No functional changes.
