Subject: [PATCH 15/15] x86/fsgsbase/64: Enable FSGSBASE by default and add a chicken bit
Date:   Mon, 19 Mar 2018 10:49:27 -0700
Message-Id: <1521481767-22113-16-git-send-email-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>
In-Reply-To: <1521481767-22113-1-git-send-email-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>
References: <1521481767-22113-1-git-send-email-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>

Now that FSGSBASE is fully supported, remove unsafe_fsgsbase, enable
FSGSBASE by default, and add nofsgsbase to disable it.
