Similar to how it doesn't make sense to have UNTRAIN_RET have two
untrain calls, it also doesn't make sense for VMEXIT to have an extra
IBPB call.
This cures VMEXIT doing potentially unret+IBPB or double IBPB.
Also, the (SEV) VMEXIT case seems to have been overlooked.
Redefine the meaning of the synthetic IBPB flags to:
- ENTRY_IBPB -- issue IBPB on entry (was: entry + VMEXIT)
- IBPB_ON_VMEXIT -- issue IBPB on VMEXIT
And have 'retbleed=ibpb' set *BOTH* feature flags to ensure it retains
the previous behaviour and issues IBPB on entry+VMEXIT.
The new 'srso=ibpb_vmexit' option only sets IBPB_ON_VMEXIT.
Create UNTRAIN_RET_VM specifically for the VMEXIT case, and have that
check IBPB_ON_VMEXIT.
All this avoids having the VMEXIT case having to check both ENTRY_IBPB
and IBPB_ON_VMEXIT and simplifies the alternatives.
