[PATCH 01/74] x86/cpu/vfm: Add/initialize x86_vfm field to struct cpuinfo_x86

From: Tony Luck
Date: Thu Mar 28 2024 - 12:42:43 EST


Refactor struct cpuinfo_x86 so that the vendor, family, and model
fields are overlayed 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.
