Cpuid leaf 4 contains information about how the state of the tsc, its
mode, and some additional information.  A commit that is queued for
linux would like to use this to determine whether the tsc mode has been
set to 'no emulation' in order to make some decisions about which
clocksource is more reliable.

Expose this information in the public API headers so that they can
subsequently be imported into linux and used there.
