Thanks.
I don't have any substantive comments (apart from "oh, you're supposed to grovel
over a registry key to get the cpu information, nice :(").
Brian,
I think you're much more familiar with this area of the code than me. Please
chime in if you have any comments!
Thanks Jon,
Never received the original patches in my email, so imported all from p-i, and
will have a look soon, comparing against x86_64 and Linux-next x86 and arm64
cpufeature enumeration and cpuinfo output.
It would be easier if MS Windows also exposed elevated CPU and MSR info to
regular user space.
