To enumerate AVX512 BFLOAT16 feature CPUID.7.1:EAX[5] and other future
features in CPUID.7.1:EAX, Boris suggests to create a new pure feature
bits word.

Boris further suggests to re-define word 11 as a scattered features word
and move the four X86_FEATURE_CQM_* features in existing word 11 and
word 12 into the new word 11. Then use word 12 to hold features in
CPUID.7.1:EAX including AVX512 BFLOAT16 instructions.

Change Log:
v2:
- Remove patch 0001 and keep x86_cache_max_rmid and x86_cache_occ_scale
  in cpuinfo_x86 per Thomas Gleixner's comment. 

v1:
Address all comments from Borislav Petkov:
- Re-define feature word 11 as a scattered features word and move the
  four X86_FEATURE_CQM_* features into the word
- Re-define feature word 12 to hold CPUID.7.1:EAX including BFLOAT16
- Name a dummy leaf 12 in cpuid_leafs in patch 0002 to avoid bisect
  error
- Simplify code to get number of rmid and monitoring scale in
  rdt_get_mon_l3_config()

Fenghua Yu (2):
  x86/cpufeatures: Combine word 11 and 12 into new scattered features
    word 11
  x86/cpufeatures: Enumerate new AVX512 BFLOAT16 instructions
