For performance testing and debugging it can be useful to disable XSAVE
features individually. This patchkit hooks up XSAVE with the
generic clearcpuid=... option, so that disabling a CPUID feature
automatically disables the respective XSAVE feature.

It also cleans up CPUID dependency management. Currently it's
possible to generate configurations with cleacpuid that crash.

It replaces an earlier patchkit that did this with special
case options.

Move the XSAVE initialization code to be after parsing early parameters.
I don't see any reason why the FPU code needs to be initialized that
early, nothing else in the initialization phase uses XSAVE.
This is useful to be able to handle command line parameters in the
XSAVE initialization code.

* [PATCH v4 2/5] x86/cpuid: Add generic table for cpuid dependencies

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

Some CPUID features depend on other features. Currently it's
possible to to clear dependent features, but not clear the base features,
which can cause various interesting problems.

This patch implements a generic table to describe dependencies
between CPUID features, to be used by all code that clears
CPUID.

Some subsystems (like XSAVE) had an own implementation of this,
but it's better to do it all in a single place for everyone.

Then clear_cpu_cap and setup_clear_cpu_cap always look up
this table and clear all dependencies too.

This is intended to be a practical table: only for features
that make sense to clear. If someone for example clears FPU,
or other features that are essentially part of the required
base feature set, not much is going to work. Handling
that is right now out of scope. We're only handling
features which can be usefully cleared.

v2: Add EXPORT_SYMBOL for clear_cpu_id for lguest

Make clearcpuid= an early param, to make sure it is parsed
before the XSAVE initialization. This allows to modify
XSAVE state by clearing specific CPUID bits.

Before enabling XSAVE, not only check the XSAVE specific CPUID bits,
but also the base CPUID features of the respective XSAVE feature.
This allows to disable individual XSAVE states using the existing
clearcpuid= option, which can be useful for performance testing
and debugging, and also in general avoids inconsistencies.

Now that the generic CPUID clearing understands dependencies,
it's enough to clear the XSAVE CPUID bit to clear all depending
features when XSAVE gets disabled.

So we don't need this hard to maintain explicit list
of features depending on XSAVE anymore. Just call the generic
clear_cpu_cap() function for XSAVE.

For performance testing and debugging it can be useful to disable XSAVE
features individually. 

This patchkit hooks up XSAVE with the generic clearcpuid=... option,
so that disabling a CPUID feature automatically disables the respective
XSAVE feature.

It also cleans up CPUID dependency management. Currently it's
possible to generate configurations with cleacpuid that crash.

It replaces an earlier patchkit that did this with special
case options.

For performance testing and debugging it can be useful to disable XSAVE
features individually. 

This patchkit hooks up XSAVE with the generic clearcpuid=... option,
so that disabling a CPUID feature automatically disables the respective
XSAVE feature.

It also cleans up CPUID dependency management. Currently it's
possible to generate configurations with cleacpuid that crash.

It replaces an earlier patchkit that did this with special
case options.
