It is rather similar to CPB (boot capability) feature
and exists since fam10h (can be looked up in AMD's BKDG).
The feature is needed for powernow-k8 to cleanup init functions and to
provide proper autoloading matching with the new x86cpu modalias
feature.

* 'x86-amd-nb-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip:
x86, amd_nb: Enable GART support for AMD family 0x15 CPUs
x86, amd: Use compute unit information to determine thread siblings
x86, amd: Extract compute unit information for AMD CPUs
x86, amd: Add support for CPUID topology extension of AMD CPUs
x86, nmi: Support NMI watchdog on newer AMD CPU families
x86, mtrr: Assume SYS_CFG[Tom2ForceMemTypeWB] exists on all future AMD CPUs
x86, k8: Rename k8.[ch] to amd_nb.[ch] and CONFIG_K8_NB to CONFIG_AMD_NB
x86, k8-gart: Decouple handling of garts and northbridges
x86, cacheinfo: Fix dependency of AMD L3 CID
x86, kvm: add new AMD SVM feature bits
x86, cpu: Fix allowed CPUID bits for KVM guests
x86, cpu: Update AMD CPUID feature bits
x86, cpu: Fix renamed, not-yet-shipping AMD CPUID feature bit
x86, AMD: Remove needless CPU family check (for L3 cache info)
x86, tsc: Remove CPU frequency calibration on AMD
Using cpuid_eax() to determine feature availability on other than
the current CPU is invalid. And feature availability should also be
checked in the hotplug code path.

The recently updated CPUID specification names new SVM feature bits.
Add them to the list of reported features.

Add package level thermal and power limit feature support.
The two MSRs and features are new starting with Intel's Sandy Bridge processor.
Please check Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures SDMV Vol 3A 14.5.6 Power Limit
Notification and 14.6 Package Level Thermal Management.
This patch also fixes a bug which defines reverse THERM_INT_LOW_ENABLE bit and
THERM_INT_HIGH_ENABLE bit.

addon_cpuid_features.c contains exactly two almost completely
unrelated functions, plus has a long and very generic name. Split it
into two files, scattered.c for the scattered feature flags, and
topology.c for the topology information.
