Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] x86/cpu/vmware: Fixes for 5.4

From: Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@...are.com>

Two fixes for recently introduced regressions:

Patch 1 is more or less idential to a previous patch fixing the VMW_PORT
macro on LLVM's assembler. However, that patch left out the VMW_HYPERCALL
macro (probably not configured for use), so let's fix that also.

Patch 2 fixes another VMW_PORT run-time regression at platform detection
time

v2:
- Added an R-B for patch 1 (Nick Desaulniers)
- Improved on asm formatting in patch 2 (Sean Christopherson)
