x86: boot: stub out unimplemented CPU feature words
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The CPU feature detection code in the boot code is somewhat minimal,
and doesn't include all possible CPUID words.  In particular, it
doesn't contain the code for CPU feature words 2 (Transmeta),
3 (Linux-specific), 5 (VIA), or 7 (scattered).  Zero them out, so we
can still set those bits as known at compile time; in particular, this
allows creating a Linux-specific NOPL flag and have it required (and
therefore resolvable at compile time) in 64-bit mode.
