[PATCH v25 4/9] x86/cet/ibt: Update ELF header parsing for Indirect Branch Tracking

From: Yu-cheng Yu
Date: Thu Apr 15 2021 - 18:19:04 EST


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.
