[PATCH 4.18 52/79] x86/kvm: Allow runtime control of L1D flush

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

All mitigation modes can be switched at run time with a static key now:

 - Use sysfs_streq() instead of strcmp() to handle the trailing new line
   from sysfs writes correctly.
 - Make the static key management handle multiple invocations properly.
 - Set the module parameter file to RW
