I'll need to carefully rebase "x86/spec-ctrl: add logic to issue IBPB on
exit to guest" over this change. In particular the use of __LINE__ there
(which probably you didn't really like anyway) won't work anymore. Yet
with just a single use of the macro per source file we ought to be able
to get away without this extra label disambiguation ...
