CPU: Introduce ARCH_HAS_CPU_AUTOPROBE and X86 parts
This patch is based on Andi Kleen's work: Implement autoprobing/loading of modules serving CPU specific features (x86cpu autoloading). And Kay Siever's work to get rid of sysdev cpu structures and making use of struct device instead. Before, the cpuid driver had to be loaded to get the x86cpu autoloading feature. With this patch autoloading works through the /sys/devices/system/cpu object Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Cc: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Cc: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> Acked-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Acked-by: H.
