x86/bugs: Fix RSB clearing in indirect_branch_prediction_barrier()



IBPB is expected to clear the RSB.  However, if X86_BUG_IBPB_NO_RET is
set, that doesn't happen.  Make indirect_branch_prediction_barrier()
take that into account by calling write_ibpb() which clears RSB on
X86_BUG_IBPB_NO_RET:

	/* Make sure IBPB clears return stack preductions too. */
	FILL_RETURN_BUFFER %rax, RSB_CLEAR_LOOPS, X86_BUG_IBPB_NO_RET

Note that, as of the previous patch, write_ibpb() also reads
'x86_pred_cmd' in order to use SBPB when applicable:

	movl	_ASM_RIP(x86_pred_cmd), %eax

Therefore that existing behavior in indirect_branch_prediction_barrier()
is not lost.
