This reverts commit a8c22ec36cdd99c1002d7152f859798fef7c4d58 which is
commit 98fdaeb296f51ef08e727a7cc72e5b5c864c4f4d upstream.
commit 7adb96687ce8 ("x86/bugs: Make spectre user default depend on
MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2") depends on commit 72c70f480a70 ("x86/bugs: Add
a separate config for Spectre V2"), which introduced
MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2.
commit 72c70f480a70 ("x86/bugs: Add a separate config for Spectre V2")
never landed in stable tree, thus, stable tree doesn't have
MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2, that said, commit 7adb96687ce8 ("x86/bugs: Make
spectre user default depend on MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2") has no value if
the dependecy was not applied.
Revert commit 7adb96687ce8 ("x86/bugs: Make spectre user default
depend on MITIGATION_SPECTRE_V2") in stable kernel which landed in in
5.4.294, 5.10.238, 5.15.185, 6.1.141 and 6.6.93 stable versions.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
