x86/cpu/vfm: Add/initialize x86_vfm field to struct cpuinfo_x86
Refactor struct cpuinfo_x86 so that the vendor, family, and model fields are overlaid in a union with a 32-bit field that combines all three (together with a one byte reserved field in the upper byte). This will make it easy, cheap, and reliable to check all three values at once. See https://lore.kernel.org/r/Zgr6kT8oULbnmEXx@agluck-desk3 for why the ordering is (low-to-high bits): (vendor, family, model) [ bp: Move comments over the line, add the backstory about the particular order of the fields. ] Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240416211941.9369-2-tony.luck@intel.com
