x86: extended "flags" to show virtualization HW feature in /proc/cpuinfo
The hardware virtualization technology evolves very fast. But currently it's hard to tell if your CPU support a certain kind of HW technology without digging into the source code. The patch add a new catagory in "flags" under /proc/cpuinfo. Now "flags" can indicate the (important) HW virtulization features the CPU supported as well. Current implementation just cover Intel VMX side. Signed-off-by: Sheng Yang <sheng.yang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
