Subject: [PATCH 01/21] x86/cpufeatures: Add Architectural LBRs feature bit

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@...ux.intel.com>

CPUID.(EAX=07H, ECX=0):EDX[19] indicates whether Intel CPU support
Architectural LBRs.

The Architectural Last Branch Records (LBR) feature enables recording
of software path history by logging taken branches and other control
flows. The feature will be supported in the perf_events subsystem.
