[PATCH 4/4] arm64: advertise CPU features for modalias matching

From: Ard Biesheuvel
Date: Mon Nov 11 2013 - 05:20:42 EST


This enables the generic implementation in drivers/base/cpu.c
that allows modules to be loaded automatically based on the
optional features supported (and advertised over udev) by the
CPU.
