Description Michal Skrivanek 2018-03-14 09:40:11 UTC 
with current kernels it makes sense to report status of retpolines instead of ibpb which is currently just a derived setting based on ibrs

So, let's change the kernelFeatures reporting from IBRS,IBPB,PTI to IBRS,RETP,PTI.
This is reflected in webadmin in the Host detail

Verify with: 4.2.3-0.1.el7

Under host tab --> Software --> Kernel Features 
On my host:
Kernel Features: PTI: 1, IBRS: 0, RETP: 1
