Obviously not. What could an unfixable CPU design bug that will impact every Intel processor (and cost up to 30% performance through the neccessary fixes) possibly do to the companies‘ stock price? /s
Except everyone that runs kernel 4.12 and onwards, where it was enabled by default and many distributions have had KASLR enabled earlier.
Also, it doesn't just affect KASLR. KASLR isn't even the concern here. Based on the info that is available/has been pieced together, it appears to be a bug, at the hardware desing level, in Intel CPUs speculative execution capabilities.
There are many reasons to just get a dedicated machine, especially given that they're like $10/month these days. (kimsufi, hetzner, ...)
This is a major one. On a dedicated box, as long as ssh and your http server are secure, you can run a compromised kernel. In practice, of course, it mostly means that there's an extra layer of exploit necessary before attackers are in. Everybody should insist on that, always.
Performance is another one (to put things bluntly: a 2-year-old atom with 4G straight on hardware, on 99% performance, beats a Quad Xeon with 96 Gigs of ram where you're 1 out of 100 VMs. And even that undersells it. In practice on that quad xeon it will regularly take 1s to jump into your code for a web request. Not generating a response, just the time before it actually processes your packet. If you're I/O bound (ie. every single website), the lowly dedicated Atom will beat the big bad Xeon).
And lastly, included network capacity is the third one. The cheapest dedicated on hetzner comes with $3000 worth of network (Google cloud prices, Amazon's are more expensive, and yes it's FUP bandwidth, so presumably you can use like $500 of it without problems if you're paying $10, not the full $3k)
