Subject: [PATCH 1/7] x86/intel_rdt: Intel Cache Allocation Technology detection

This patch adds support for the new Cache Allocation Technology (CAT)
feature found in future Intel Xeon processors. CAT is part of Intel
Resource Director Technology(RDT) which enables sharing of processor
resources. This patch includes CPUID enumeration routines for CAT and
new values to track CAT resources to the cpuinfo_x86 structure.

Cache Allocation Technology(CAT) provides a way for the Software
(OS/VMM) to restrict cache allocation to a defined 'subset' of cache
which may be overlapping with other 'subsets'.  This feature is used
when allocating a line in cache ie when pulling new data into the cache.
The programming of the h/w is done via programming  MSRs.

More information about CAT be found in the Intel (R) x86 Architecture
Software Developer Manual,Volume 3, section 17.15.
