Subject: [PATCH v5 2/5] x86/umwait: Initialize umwait control values

umwait or tpause allows processor to enter a light-weight
power/performance optimized state (C0.1 state) or an improved
power/performance optimized state (C0.2 state) for a period
specified by the instruction or until the system time limit or until
a store to the monitored address range in umwait.

IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL MSR register allows kernel to enable/disable C0.2
on the processor and set maximum time the processor can reside in
C0.1 or C0.2.

By default C0.2 is enabled so the user wait instructions can enter the
C0.2 state to save more power with slower wakeup time.

Andy Lutomirski proposes setting maximum umwait time to 100000 cycles
by default. A quote from Andy:

"What I want to avoid is the case where it works dramatically differently
on NO_HZ_FULL systems as compared to everything else. Also, UMWAIT may
behave a bit differently if the max timeout is hit, and I'd like that path
to get exercised widely by making it happen even on default configs."

A later patch provides a sysfs interface to adjust this value.
