BTW, I think the bit cannot be assigned for new other usage in the future and becomes reserved forever, right?
Reserving the bit forever looks contrary to the purpose of this patch. Right now the bit is already taken. And shipping processors will report that CPUID bit as zero. So this removal intentionally makes the software into the "it was never defined before" state. Whether the bit will eventually be repurposed is what I don't know. But that being said, I think it should be also backported to @stable.
Thanks,
