x86/its: FineIBT-paranoid vs ITS

Browse Source 
FineIBT-paranoid was using the retpoline bytes for the paranoid check,
disabling retpolines, because all parts that have IBT also have eIBRS
and thus don't need no stinking retpolines.

Except... ITS needs the retpolines for indirect calls must not be in
the first half of a cacheline :-/

So what was the paranoid call sequence:

  <fineibt_paranoid_start>:
   0:   41 ba 78 56 34 12       mov    $0x12345678, %r10d
   6:   45 3b 53 f7             cmp    -0x9(%r11), %r10d
   a:   4d 8d 5b <f0>           lea    -0x10(%r11), %r11
   e:   75 fd                   jne    d <fineibt_paranoid_start+0xd>
  10:   41 ff d3                call   *%r11
  13:   90                      nop

Now becomes:

  <fineibt_paranoid_start>:
   0:   41 ba 78 56 34 12       mov    $0x12345678, %r10d
   6:   45 3b 53 f7             cmp    -0x9(%r11), %r10d
   a:   4d 8d 5b f0             lea    -0x10(%r11), %r11
   e:   2e e8 XX XX XX XX	cs call __x86_indirect_paranoid_thunk_r11

  Where the paranoid_thunk looks like:

   1d:  <ea>                    (bad)
   __x86_indirect_paranoid_thunk_r11:
   1e:  75 fd                   jne 1d
   __x86_indirect_its_thunk_r11:
   20:  41 ff eb                jmp *%r11
   23:  cc                      int3
