Stable kernels 5.18.14 and 5.15.57

[Posted July 24, 2022 by corbet]

The 5.18.14 and 5.15.57 stable kernels have been released; these consist almost entirely of the Retbleed hardware-vulnerability mitigations.

The 5.10.133 update will be next to get those fixes; it is in the review process and is due on July 25.

[Update: 5.10.133 has been released.]

fwiw it seems Fedora picked the patches into 5.18.11 and enabled in 5.18.13?

I wanted to know what the reference to "x86/cpu/amd: Add Spectral Chicken" meant in the changelog for 5.18.14. I found a pretty funny commit: https://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg4449602.html
