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.

This patch does not touch any existing code and is only meant to be a
tool for future patches so that simple source files can more easily be
maintained to target multiple VEC classes.
