x86: KVM: Advertise CMPccXADD CPUID to user space
CMPccXADD is a new set of instructions in the latest Intel platform
Sierra Forest. This new instruction set includes a semaphore operation
that can compare and add the operands if condition is met, which can
improve database performance.
The bit definition:
CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=1):EAX[bit 7]
CMPccXADD is on an expected-dense CPUID leaf and some other bits on this
leaf have kernel usages. Given that, define this feature bit like
X86_FEATURE_<name> in kernel. Considering CMPccXADD itself has no truly
kernel usages and /proc/cpuinfo has too much unreadable flags, hide this
one in /proc/cpuinfo.
Advertise CMPCCXADD to KVM userspace. This is safe because there are no
new VMX controls or additional host enabling required for guests to use
this feature.
