Subject: [RFC PATCH 18/22] x86/cpufeatures/amx: Enumerate Advanced Matrix Extension (AMX) feature bits

Intel's Advanced Matrix Extension (AMX) is a new 64-bit extended feature
consisting of two-dimensional registers and an accelerator unit. The first
implementation of the latter is the tile matrix multiply unit (TMUL). TMUL
performs SIMD dot-products on four bytes (INT8) or two bfloat16
floating-point (BF16) elements.

Here we add AMX to the kernel/user ABI, by enumerating the capability.
E.g., /proc/cpuinfo: amx_tile, amx_bf16, amx_int8
