[PATCH v3 2/2] x86: Support compiling out human-friendly processor feature names
From: Josh Triplett
Date: Sat Feb 22 2014 - 16:06:48 EST
The table mapping CPUID bits to human-readable strings takes up a
non-trivial amount of space, and only exists to support /proc/cpuinfo
and a couple of kernel messages. Since programs depend on the format of
/proc/cpuinfo, force inclusion of the table when building with /proc
support; otherwise, support omitting that table to save space, in which
case the kernel messages will print features numerically instead.
In addition to saving 1408 bytes out of vmlinux, this also saves 1373
bytes out of the uncompressed setup code, which contributes directly to
the size of bzImage.

v3: Fix build issue for clean builds, introduced in v2.
v2: Incorporate feedback from H. Peter Anvin:
- Remove unnecessary ifdefs.
- Print numeric feature flags in word:bit form.

+ This option compiles in a table of x86 feature bits and corresponding
