Add enqcmds() in x86 io.h instead of special_insns.h.

Why? It is an asm wrapper for a special instruction.

Ok will move.


MOVDIR64B
instruction can be used for other purposes. A wrapper was introduced
in io.h for its command submission usage. ENQCMDS has a single
purpose of submit 64-byte commands to supported devices and should
be called directly.

Your #319433 doc says

"ENQCMDS — Enqueue Command Supervisor"

Now *how* that enqueueing is done you can explain in the comment below.

Ok will add.


+ * @dst: destination, in MMIO space (must be 512-bit aligned)
+ * @src: source
+ *
+ * Submit data from kernel space to MMIO space, in a unit of 512 bits.
+ * Order of data access is not guaranteed, nor is a memory barrier

+ * on success.

The command or the function?

Function. Will fix.

 From what I see below, the instruction sets ZF=1 to denote that it needs
to be retried and ZF=0 means success, as the doc says. And in good UNIX
tradition, 0 means usually success and !0 failure.

So why are you flipping that?

Ok will return 0 for success and -ERETRY for failure.

Thank you very much for reviewing Boris. Very much appreciated!
