v2:
* Keeping only the minimal common platform defines
* added vmware_platform() check function

v3:
* Added new field to handle different hypervisor magic values

v4:
* Make it so that "cmd" is always the first parameter for both
  High-Bandwidh and non-High-Bandwidth version of the macro
* Addressed comments from H. Peter Anvin on the assembly code
