Here's a lightly tested backport of the Spectre v1 swapgs mitigation, for 4.9.

Hm, you backported 64dbc122b20f ("x86/entry/64: Use JMP instead of JMPQ") which is not in 4.14.y, yet you did not backport 4c92057661a3 ("Documentation: Add swapgs description to the Spectre v1 documentation") which should go to this kernel too, right?
