x86: cpuid: allow querying %ecx-sensitive CPUID levels
After /dev/*/cpuid was introduced, Intel changed the semantics of the CPUID instruction to be sentitive to %ecx as well as %eax. This patch allows querying of %ecx-sensitive levels by placing the %ecx value in the upper 32 bits of the file position (lower 32 bits always were used for the %eax value.) Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
