Borislav Petkov (AMD) ed37bdaee6 x86/retpoline: Do the necessary fixup to the Zen3/4 srso return thunk for !SRSO
commit 0e11073247 upstream.

The srso_alias_untrain_ret() dummy thunk in the !CONFIG_MITIGATION_SRSO
case is there only for the altenative in CALL_UNTRAIN_RET to have
a symbol to resolve.

However, testing with kernels which don't have CONFIG_MITIGATION_SRSO
enabled, leads to the warning in patch_return() to fire:

  missing return thunk: srso_alias_untrain_ret+0x0/0x10-0x0: eb 0e 66 66 2e
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:826 apply_returns (arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:826

Put in a plain "ret" there so that gcc doesn't put a return thunk in
in its place which special and gets checked.

In addition:

  ERROR: modpost: "srso_alias_untrain_ret" [arch/x86/kvm/kvm-amd.ko] undefined!
  make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:145: Module.symvers] Chyba 1
  make[1]: *** [/usr/src/linux-6.8.3/Makefile:1873: modpost] Chyba 2
  make: *** [Makefile:240: __sub-make] Chyba 2

since !SRSO builds would use the dummy return thunk as reported by
petr.pisar@atlas.cz, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218679.

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 Restructured Text 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.
