Subject: [PATCH 5.0 24/25] x86: Add TSX Force Abort CPUID/MSR

5.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Peter Zijlstra (Intel)" <peterz@...radead.org>

Skylake systems will receive a microcode update to address a TSX
errata. This microcode will (by default) clobber PMC3 when TSX
instructions are (speculatively or not) executed.

It also provides an MSR to cause all TSX transaction to abort and
preserve PMC3.

Add the CPUID enumeration and MSR definition.
