    The point is the Linux Kernel is covering the same security mitigations which make the CPU level ones redundant. If all users are using the Linux Kernel, why would it be an issue?

      Depends on how you use your system if you have multiple users. CPU mitigations wont protect GPU workloads, and vice versa. If your CPU was mitigating GPU workloads, that would probably be a massive performance loss.
