I suggest to start with the kernel
But please do read up on the various variants and mitigations. You may not 
necessarily need all of them
Also, you may lack the right firmware/microcode updates from your CPU vendor at 
the moment. Red Hat's microcode package only contains those which were released 
by Intel/AMD so far.
