Subject: [PATCH 4/4] x86/msr: Document msr-index.h rule for addition
From: Borislav Petkov <bp@...e.de>
In order to keep this file's size sensible and not cause too much
unnecessary churn, make the rule explicit - similar to pci_ids.h - that
only MSRs which are used in multiple compilation units, should get added
to it.
