Bug description:
  Description:

  Future Intel CPU's like Cascade Lake and GLK+ support Enhanced IBRS.
  Enhanced IBRS is a H/W mitigation technique for Spectre V2 bug. So,
  it's important for us to make sure that all the OSV's are using this
  feature.

  The patch that enables kernel support for this feature has been taken
  by Thomas and it's in TIP tree. So, please back port it to all the
  OSV's. Please find the patch here:

  Target Kernel:4.18
  Target Release: 18.10
