Inspired by Linux commit c49a0a80137c7ca7d6ced4c812c9e07a949f6f24:

    There have been reports of RDRAND issues after resuming from suspend on
    some AMD family 15h and family 16h systems. This issue stems from a BIOS
    not performing the proper steps during resume to ensure RDRAND continues
    to function properly.

    Update the CPU initialization to clear the RDRAND CPUID bit for any family
    15h and 16h processor that supports RDRAND. If it is known that the family
    15h or family 16h system does not have an RDRAND resume issue or that the
    system will not be placed in suspend, the "cpuid=rdrand" kernel parameter
    can be used to stop the clearing of the RDRAND CPUID bit.

    Note, that clearing the RDRAND CPUID bit does not prevent a processor
    that normally supports the RDRAND instruction from executing it. So any
    code that determined the support based on family and model won't #UD.

Warn if no explicit choice was given on affected hardware.

Check RDRAND functions at boot as well as after S3 resume (the retry
limit chosen is entirely arbitrary).

Still slightly RFC, and still in particular because of the change to
parse_xen_cpuid(): Alternative approach suggestions are welcome. But now
also because with many CPUs there may now be a lot of warnings in case
of issues.
---
v5: Extend a comment. Drop cpu_relax(). Mark is_forced_cpu_cap() __init.
v4: Check always, including during boot. Slightly better sanity check,
    inspired by Linux commit 7879fc4bdc7.
v3: Add call to warning_add(). If force-enabled, check RDRAND still
    functioning after S3 resume.
v2: Re-base.

It would still be nice if we could find a better way of determining
whether S3 is supported on the platform, which would at least let us
sort server and client platforms.

A straight string search for _S3 in the DSDT does look to be effective,
on a sample of 5 boxes I've tried.

Hm, that's an interesting idea. There's also the _S3D device method
that could give a false positive? (ie: a device having a _S3D method
even when the DSDT doesn't have the _S3 method)

Roger.
