The way the kernel folks handled retpoline (gcc build in extra koji buildroot) was the best they could do to get those safer kernels out quickly and still have reproducible builds.
koji buildroots are available for everyone to do their scratch builds with. There's also a gcc-retpoline copr if you want to do builds there, using a retpoline gcc.
This update has been submitted for testing by jforbes.
This update has obsoleted kernel-4.14.15-300.fc27, and has inherited its bugs and notes.
Can confirm - fixes all problems loading external kernel modules for it87 / nvidia / virtualbox etc.
works now with Virtualbox. Thanks.

Big thanks for getting this version out. Support for external modules is essential for my use case. I confirm it's fixed now.
