Disable support for flushing the L1 data cache to mitigate L1TF if CPU mitigations are disabled for the entire kernel. KVM's mitigation of L1TF is in no way special enough to justify ignoring CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS=n. Deliberately use CPU_MITIGATIONS instead of the more precise MITIGATION_L1TF, as MITIGATION_L1TF only controls the default behavior, i.e. CONFIG_MITIGATION_L1TF=n doesn't completely disable L1TF mitigations in the kernel. Keep the vmentry_l1d_flush module param to avoid breaking existing setups, and leverage the .set path to alert the user to the fact that vmentry_l1d_flush will be ignored. Don't bother validating the incoming value; if an admin misconfigures vmentry_l1d_flush, the fact that the bad configuration won't be detected when running with CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS=n is likely the least of their worries.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
