(I tested on Skylake. INVPCID is not available on Sandy Bridge. I don't have Ivy Bridge, Haswell or Broadwell to test on, so I could be wrong as to when the feature was introduced.) I think we should consider these patches separately from the rest of the PCID stuff -- they barely interact, and this part is much simpler and is useful on its own. Changes from v2: - Add macros for the INVPCID mode numbers. - Add a changelog message for the chicken bit. v1 was exactly identical to patches 2-4 of the PCID RFC series.
