Subject: [PATCH] x86: multi-byte single instruction NOPs

Add support for and use the multi-byte NOPs recently documented to be
available on all PentiumPro and later processors.

This patch only applies cleanly on top of the "x86: misc.
constifications" patch sent earlier.

Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@...ell.com>
