Compiler with Spectre mitigation retpoline/-mindirect-branch=thunk



Hey,

I was wondering, are the debian maintainers planning on backporting the -mindirect-branch=thunk support introduced in GCC 7.3 and 8.1 to the compilers available on Jessie and Stretch? While this is not necessarily a security fix for the compiler it does provide that fix to at least kernels compiled using it.

Regards,
