      x86/paravirt: Remove 'noreplace-paravirt' cmdline option · 12c69f1e
      Josh Poimboeuf authored
      The 'noreplace-paravirt' option disables paravirt patching, leaving the
      original pv indirect calls in place.
      
      That's highly incompatible with retpolines, unless we want to uglify
      paravirt even further and convert the paravirt calls to retpolines.
      
      As far as I can tell, the option doesn't seem to be useful for much
      other than introducing surprising corner cases and making the kernel
      vulnerable to Spectre v2.  It was probably a debug option from the early
      paravirt days.  So just remove it.
