Subject: [PATCH v3] x86/cpufeature: Add AVX512_4VNNIW and AVX512_4FMAPS features.

AVX512_4VNNIW  - Vector instructions for deep learning enhanced word
variable precision.
AVX512_4FMAPS - Vector instructions for deep learning floating-point
single precision.

The new instructions are to be used in future Intel Xeon & Xeon Phi
processors. The bits 2&3 of CPUID[level:0x07, EDX] inform that new
instructions are supported by a processor and can be used by programs.

The patch defines new feature flags to enumerate new instruction groups
in /proc/cpuinfo accordingly to CPUID bits. Because correct xsave setup
is required to use AVX512 instruction, the patch clears the new feature
flags in CPU caps to inform programs not to use the instructions if the
setup fails. 

The spec can be found in Intel Software Developer Manual (SDM) or in
Instruction Set Extensions Programming Reference (ISE).
The implementation is based on Table 2.8 "Information Returned by CPUID
Instruction" in ISE,
https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/69/78/319433-025.pdf.

v2: Initialize new bits in the scattered group. Add reference to correct
    description of new feature bits.
v3: Fix v2 info. Add short info what the patch does.
