Subject: [PATCH v4 05/17] x86/cpufeatures: Enumerate IA32_CORE_CAPABILITIES MSR

MSR register IA32_CORE_CAPABILITIES (0xCF) contains bits that enumerate
some model specific features.

The MSR 0xCF itself is enumerated by CPUID.(EAX=0x7,ECX=0):EDX[30].
When this bit is 1, the MSR 0xCF exists.

Detailed information for the CPUID bit and the MSR can be found in the
latest Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions and Future Features
Programming Reference.
