Subject: [PATCH 2/3] x86/cpu: Describe hybrid CPUs in cpuinfo_x86

When Linux runs on Intel hybrid parts (i.e., having more than one type of
CPU in the same package), subsystems that deal with specific CPU features
may need to know the type of CPU in which they run. Instead of having each
subsystem to inspect CPUID leaves on its own, add a new member to
cpuinfo_x86 that can be queried to know the type of CPU.

Also, hybrid parts have a native model ID to uniquely identify the
micro-architecture of each CPU. Please note that the native model ID is not
related with the existing x86_model_id read from CPUID leaf 0x1.

In order to uniquely identify a CPU by type and micro-architecture, combine
the aforementioned identifiers into a single new member, x86_cpu_type.

The Intel manual (SDM) defines the CPU type and the CPU native model ID as
8-bit and 24-bit identifiers, respectively; they are packed in %eax when
read from CPUID.

Define also masks that subsystems can use to obtain the CPU type or the
native model separately. The native model ID only requires only a bit mask
as it uses the 24 least significant bits of %eax. The CPU type identifier
requires only a shift value as it uses the 8 most significant bytes of
%eax.
