H. Peter Anvin ec481536b1 Unify the CPU features vectors between i386 and x86-64
Unify the handling of the CPU features vectors between i386 and x86-64.
This also adopts the collapsing of features which are required at
compile-time into constant tests from x86-64 to i386.

Vivek Goyal a4831e08b7 [PATCH] x86-64: Move cpu verification code to common file
o This patch moves the code to verify long mode and SSE to a common file.
  This code is now shared by trampoline.S, wakeup.S, boot/setup.S and
  boot/compressed/head.S

o So far we used to do very limited check in trampoline.S, wakeup.S and
  in 32bit entry point. Now all the entry paths are forced to do the
  exhaustive check, including SSE because verify_cpu is shared.

o I am keeping this patch as last in the x86 relocatable series because
  previous patches have got quite some amount of testing done and don't want
  to distrub that. So that if there is problem introduced by this patch, at
  least it can be easily isolated.
