Sorry for the delay in addressing this, I've fixed up QRT to expect
CONFIG_RETPOLINE for 3.13 kernels on precise, and not fail if earlier
kernels have it enabled where we don't expect it.

Thanks.

Title:
test_265_config_retpoline in kernel_security_test failed on 3.13
Precise
Status in QA Regression Testing:
Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-kernel-tests:
Confirmed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
== Justification ==
In the Precise 3.13 kernel, the CONFIG_RETPOLINE was set to y in commit
eae992be4, which should be disabled to meet the security team's requirement.
======================================================================
FAIL: test_265_config_retpoline (__main__.KernelSecurityConfigTest)
Ensure retpoline configuration option is set
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./test-kernel-security.py", line 2445, in test_265_config_retpoline
self.assertKernelConfig('RETPOLINE', expected)
File "./test-kernel-security.py", line 209, in assertKernelConfig

AssertionError: RETPOLINE option was expected to be unset in the kernel
config
In this test case, this config was expected to be NOT set:
elif self.lsb_release['Release'] == 12.04:
self._skipped("RETPOLINE compiler not in precise")
expected = False
self.assertKernelConfig('RETPOLINE', expected)
== Fix ==
[Precise/lts-backport-trusty][SRU][PATCHv2] Revert "UBUNTU: [Config]
CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y"
== Test ==
The test_265_config_retpoline will pass after disabling CONFIG_RETPOLINE
== Regression Potential ==
Minimal.
No code changes, just a config changes.
