-This reverts commit 6cfb521ac0d5b97470883ff9b7facae264b7ab12.
-
-Turns out distros do not want to make retpoline as part of their "ABI",
-so this patch should not have been merged.  Sorry Andi, this was my
-fault, I suggested it when your original patch was the "correct" way of
-doing this instead.
