Subject: [PATCH 1/4] x86/cpu: Add and use new CPUID region helper


From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@...ux.intel.com>

There are some (before now) unwritten rules about CPUID "regions".
Basically, there is a 32-bit address space of CPUID leaves.  The
top 16 bits address a "region" and the first leaf in a region
is special.

The kernel only has a few spots that care about this, but it's
rather hard to make sense of the code as is.

Add a helper that explains regions.  Use it where applicable.
