/// Pass that replaces ret instructions with a jmp to __x86_return_thunk.
///
/// This corresponds to -mfunction-return=thunk-extern or
/// __attribute__((function_return("thunk-extern").
///
/// This pass is a minimal implementation necessary to help mitigate
/// RetBleed for the Linux kernel.
///
/// Should support for thunk or thunk-inline be necessary in the future, then
/// this pass should be combined with x86-retpoline-thunks which already has
/// machinery to emit thunks. Until then, YAGNI.
///
/// This pass is very similar to x86-lvi-ret.
