[PATCH] x86/cpufeatures: Add WBNOINVD feature definition

From: Natarajan, Janakarajan
Date: Wed Nov 07 2018 - 15:59:14 EST


Add a new cpufeature definition for the WBNOINVD instruction.

The WBNOINVD instruction writes all modified line in all levels of
cache associated with a processor to main memory while retaining the
cached values.

Both AMD and Intel support this instruction.
