x86/cfi: Extend {JMP,CAKK}_NOSPEC comment
With the introduction of kCFI these helpers are no longer equivalent to C indirect calls and should be used with care.

* JMP_NOSPEC and CALL_NOSPEC macros can be used instead of a simple
|
||||
* indirect jmp/call which may be susceptible to the Spectre variant 2
|
||||
* attack.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* NOTE: these do not take kCFI into account and are thus not comparable to C
|
||||
* indirect calls, take care when using. The target of these should be an ENDBR
|
||||
* instruction irrespective of kCFI.
