Subject: [PATCH] x86/boot: adding hw subarch ID for Moorestown

    x86 bootprotocol 2.07 has introduced hardware_subarch ID in the boot
    parameters provided by FW. We use it to identify Moorestown platforms.

    The subarchitecture ID will help select a set of platform features and
    x86_quirks.
