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

commit 1b86883ccb8d5d9506529d42dbe1a5257cb30b18 upstream
The 336996-Speculative-Execution-Side-Channel-Mitigations.pdf refers to all the other bits as reserved. The Intel SDM glossary defines reserved as implementation specific - aka unknown.
As such at bootup this must be taken it into account and proper masking for the bits in use applied.
