Gayatri Kammela 12dc3fa301 x86/cpufeatures: Enable new SSE/AVX/AVX512 CPU features 
commit c128dbfa0f upstream.

Add a few new SSE/AVX/AVX512 instruction groups/features for enumeration
in /proc/cpuinfo: AVX512_VBMI2, GFNI, VAES, VPCLMULQDQ, AVX512_VNNI,
AVX512_BITALG.

 CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):ECX[bit 6]  AVX512_VBMI2
 CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):ECX[bit 8]  GFNI
 CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):ECX[bit 9]  VAES
 CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):ECX[bit 10] VPCLMULQDQ
 CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):ECX[bit 11] AVX512_VNNI
 CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):ECX[bit 12] AVX512_BITALG

Detailed information of CPUID bits for these features can be found
in the Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions and Future Features
Programming Interface document (refer to Table 1-1. and Table 1-2.).

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
