The RTM vzeroupper mitigation has no way of replacing inline
vzeroupper not before a return.
This can be useful when hoisting a vzeroupper to save code size
for example:
```
L(foo):
cmpl %eax, %edx
jz L(bar)
tzcntl %eax, %eax
addq %rdi, %rax
VZEROUPPER_RETURN
L(bar):
xorl %eax, %eax
VZEROUPPER_RETURN
```
Can become:
```
L(foo):
COND_VZEROUPPER
cmpl %eax, %edx
jz L(bar)
tzcntl %eax, %eax
addq %rdi, %rax
ret
L(bar):
xorl %eax, %eax
ret
```
This code does not change any existing functionality.
There is no difference in the objdump of libc.so before and after this
patch.
