[PATCH 2/5] cpu: add generic support for CPU feature based module autoloading

From: Ard Biesheuvel
Date: Wed Jan 29 2014 - 11:52:37 EST


This patch adds support for advertising optional CPU features over udev using
the modalias, and for declaring compatibility with/dependency upon such a
feature in a module.

This feature can be enabled by setting CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU_AUTOPROBE for the
architecture, and supplying a file <asm/cpufeature.h> which defines how the
numbers used in the modalias string map to actual CPU features.
