    to mitigate the Spectre Variant 2 attack.

    New compiler options have been added to specify specific code generation:

    * -mindirect-branch=keep
    * -mindirect-branch=thunk
    * -mindirect-branch=thunk-extern
    * -mindirect-branch=thunk-inline
    * -mindirect-branch-register
    * -mfunction-return=keep
    * -mfunction-return=thunk
    * -mfunction-return=thunk-extern
    * -mfunction-return=thunk-inline
