[PATCH v17 4/7] x86/cet/ibt: Update ELF header parsing for Indirect Branch Tracking

From: Yu-cheng Yu <hidden>
Date: 2020-12-29 21:35:39
Also in: linux-api, linux-arch, linux-doc, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

An ELF file's .note.gnu.property indicates features the file supports.
The property is parsed at loading time and passed to arch_setup_elf_
property().  Update it for Indirect Branch Tracking.
