Currently x86, ARM and ARM64 support generic CPU vulnerabilites, but
RISC-V not, such as:
# cd /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/
x86:
# cat spec_store_bypass
Mitigation: Speculative Store Bypass disabled via prctl and seccomp
# cat meltdown
Not affected
ARM64:
# cat spec_store_bypass
Mitigation: Speculative Store Bypass disabled via prctl and seccomp
# cat meltdown
Mitigation: PTI
RISC-V:
# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities
# ... No such file or directory
As SiFive RISC-V Core IP offerings are not affected by Meltdown and
Spectre, it can use the default weak function as below:
# cat spec_store_bypass
Not affected
# cat meltdown
Not affected

This is an RFC, but I'm just going to pick it up on for-next: we had a recent round of RISC-V vulnerabilities crop up, so it's time to start tracking those for users. It's queued up for now, it'll show up on for-next proper assumin it passes the tests. Thanks!
