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

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

Cache allocation 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 Cache allocation be found in the Intel (R) x86
Architecture Software Developer Manual,Volume 3, section 17.15.
